Re: Maplin stores
Possibly a little before my time, the only thing I remember Philips-related here was that when I started my first job in a radio and TV shop ~ 1979 we would occasionally make trips across to the west side of Newcastle to some sort of Philips parts distribution centre - mainly for Philips specific TV parts like LOPTs, I would imagine. Maybe it was one of the shops you refer to, I never went in. My job was always to guard the works Austin Maxi and drive off if anyone tried to put a ticket on it.
