May I also add my contribution to the general approbation of Sunday's event. It was a great day out and a real pleasure to meet up with everyone again as well as meet new folk whose names I had only previously known from the forum. It was also a fine thing to be ferried up and back by Trevor in his trusty Fiat thus relieving me of any driving duties.

The conversation was lively, interesting and diverse. Norman's display of working, vintage TVs was impressive with a similar varied selection of radios. It was good to see a real, working TV workshop again. These are becoming a rare thing and I can see the day coming when they will be all but extinct.

The amount and variety of food which just 'appeared' during the course of the day was genuinely awesome. Mrs 'Norman' must have worked like a Trojan to produce such a constant supply of goodies.

My thanks to you all for your generosity of spirit and the pleasure of your company; I am already looking forward to the next meet.
