Yes I informed one of my friends about it the other day. I will be on my travels again so will be away, I would have gone but for that, it’s only about 6 miles away, Golborne was the other weekend, I was away for that as well. Hey Ho.

The weekend is the same as an auto jumble at Tatton Park, don’t know if that will affect attendance.

I seem to remember, didn't Rob run The WirelessWorks  down in Cornwall? I remember when I first got into valve radios buying a 1934 Ultra 66 console, 1946 Vidor Chanson and 1939 PYE MP from him via his website. It would have been around 1998/99. This new SteamRadios website uses the exact same colours of the old one.

ICBW.

I'm going to try and make sure I keep the 3rd of June free and have a ride over Frank, just a shame you can't make it although maybe there could be more events in the future fingers crossed.

I would have liked that - but it's way beyond my 30 mile physical comfort zone..... ?  ?
