I understand the anniversary was a diamond wedding - which would explain the diamonds I found strewn around (unfortunately made of plastic!)

I too found it good to put one or two new faces to forum names. The only trouble is, being basically face-blind, I doubt I'll recognise them again next time I meet them!

Thanks to everyone who supported the Bring and Buy stall. The proceeds from a majority of the items brought were donated to Society funds, which (along with the 10% commission from items sold on that basis) meant the stall raised a total of £92.50 to support the work of the Radio and Television Museum in Dulwich. I don't keep records from one event to the next (so may be wrong), but I think this was the best result I've had since I started running the stall. Thank you also to everyone for taking back any unsold items - which I also greatly appreciate, having nowhere to store any abandoned items.

Oh, and I also went away with a few new toys to play with!
