Re: Golborne Sunday 7th April
Hi Greg,
Many thanks for muling the stuff from Andy. I'll see you at Retrotec. Whilst I think of it, I'll ask in the Retrotec thread about parking around mid-morning at the Retrotec event. Terry. |

Re: Golborne Sunday 7th April
Turned out nice again
Thanks to all involved in the organisation in yesterdays event, I had a most splendid time. Much banter was had, a few structured conversations, and more than a modicum of mirth. Some old (but new to me) Roberts radios to keep me going for a month until the next restock at Retrotech. Special and massive thanks to Mike for the original Roberts R300 box. That, although just a box, is my favourite take away from the event. More Roberts ephemera is always on my wishlist, and if anyone has any, please get in touch to discuss. I'm generally fine for radios themselves, there aren't many a model that Roberts produced, that haven't ever crossed my bench, including some rarities. Bits and bobs are what I'm actively looking for now. I was happy to be the Bring & Buy Guy for the event, manning the table with George, and thank you to those who bore with me whilst I learned the ropes. We raised just shy of £30 for the museum, and the decks were clear at the end - no bits or bobs left over - this makes a massive difference, and is a big help - so a thank you to all for making it the success it was. Paul

Re: Golborne Sunday 7th April
Thank you, Paul, for taking on the B&B at short notice. I'm glad it went well and made a reasonable return.
I was very sorry to miss the event, and am looking forward to October.
