[CambridgeWorks]

I left when the rain started, just before 1200.
Spent just £2 on a RS "banshee" loud sounder, additional for my outside workshop alarm. Also 20p on a couple of switches. Didn't think as much vintage valve type junk as other years, but a lot of test gear and quite a bit of silent key stuff.
I was staggered by the cost of a trader's outside pitch with a gazebo and stuff on the floor, also another component trader with 2 gazebos. They both said they each paid £300 in advance for the 2 day privilege of being outside! Also, they were right up one end of the line past the Cambridge hams stand, a bit out of the way I think.
I know we can all sometimes complain about the lack of certain types of traders or cost of components, but you can see why with prices like these.
This is one reason I much prefer the local club rallies.
However, I will still be going there next year!
