beamcurrent · 9th Oct 2022, 7:38 pm

It is just 10 days to our OB vans next appearance at the Royal Holloway University of London, Egham, TW20 0EX on Thursday the 20th .

We will be in the “Founders Square” a new paved area on the north east side of the “Founders Building”. Plan is to arrive about 0800hrs and we will be set up for visitors 0930 onwards till late afternoon.

This is publicly accessible, just walk in through the main entrance, then left, then right and you will see us. Alas there is NO PARKING on site!!!

There are small car parks across the A30 in Englefield Green, 10-15 min walk, or buses run from Egham.

We will, weather permitting, have our full set of interpretation boards out and will be displaying the original Pye Mk6 camera and a slightly later Pye Mk7 camera.

Regards From the BTTT team.

Hi all

Just boosting this for those who might have missed it and want to come.

This Thurs the 20th, two days after the BBC's 100th.
