Scottish Meet 2012 - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Norman Raeburn · 1st Apr 2012, 10:45 pm

Hi all, I intend to hold a meet at my workshop on the 27th May subject to interest. I read with interest Trevor's (Murphy V310) comments on fuel costs etc, a point on which I am sure we all agree, however we have all made long journeys (funds permitting) in pursuit of our hobby. If you are interested in attending please let me know, a buffet style lunch will be provided. Best regards, Norman.

Hi Norman,
I will be up for attending if my health continues to improve as it is

Sadly no junk to bring this time as its all gone in a massive workshop clearance. Now all spick & span.
Paul

Norman Raeburn · 2nd Apr 2012, 1:36 pm

Hi Paul, I look forward to seeing you again health permitting, spick and span with the word workshop don't belong in the same sentence. Best regards, Norman.

Alistair D · 2nd Apr 2012, 2:52 pm

I'll be there. Like Kalee 99, nothing to bring but I am sure I will be leaving with another project or two.
I do get spic and span in the same sentence but only very rarely.

Hi Norman,

I'd like to join you.

Thanks,

Peter

Norman Raeburn · 3rd Apr 2012, 8:37 pm

Hi Al and Peter, It will be good to see you both again, Peter I have the bench mat here for you, please remind me on the day as there is usually a lot going on. Best regards, Norman.

murphyv310 · 4th Apr 2012, 7:16 am

Hi.
I'll check the shifts & finances and will hopefully see you then.
If I am off that day I could car share and bring Andy & Tim if they wish.

Norman Raeburn · 4th Apr 2012, 9:22 am

Hi Trevor, That would be great if you can manage, car sharing is definately the way to go. I hope you can attend and bring the others with you, cheers Norman.

kalee99 · 4th Apr 2012, 10:45 am

Hi all,
I will be happy to take anyone along in my car from Northumberland or en route?
Paul

Ken · 4th Apr 2012, 1:40 pm

Hi Norman

Please count me in as well.

Regards,

Ken.

Norman Raeburn · 4th Apr 2012, 9:15 pm

Hi Ken, you are always welcome to attend, thanks Paul for the offer to bring some folk with you. If anyone from the Northeast of England is looking for a lift please let us know. Norman

Hi Norman,

It would be interesting to meet some of the denizens of this group. I know where Leven is, though not where your workshop is. I'm rather impressed by the range over which people are drawn!

David

murphyv310 · 4th Apr 2012, 10:21 pm

Hi.
I am sure Retroaudio from Cairneyhill will go too!

Norman Raeburn · 4th Apr 2012, 11:21 pm

Hi David, I actually live in Kennoway, Leven is the postal area. My workshop is at my home and you would be most welcome to attend. Please let me know and I will pm my details to you. Norman

murphyv310 · 6th Apr 2012, 8:26 am

Sadly I cannot make it yet again. I am working that day and a request for a day off has been refused.
Very sorry

Hi Norman,

I was hoping you'd still have that. I'll certainly remind you on the day.

Thanks,

Peter

Norman Raeburn · 8th Apr 2012, 10:42 pm

Hi Trevor, Sorry you can't make it, I was hoping to get a chassis from Bob brought through that day. I will telephone him and arrange something. Best regards, Norman

radioman · 20th Apr 2012, 9:21 am

Hi Norman,

I've managed to arrange a lift with Ken so I'll be coming too !

Andy

Norman Raeburn · 20th Apr 2012, 11:57 am

Hi Andy, That's good news, I didn't think Ken would mind. Trevor is trying to arrange a swap with someone at work to get the day off. Look forward to seeing you, Norman

kalee99 · 3rd May 2012, 10:06 pm

Hi all,
booked a nice hotel so hopefully will not get food poisoning this time

Not much to sell this time but may bring my collection of Radiac instruments & a test isotope for demonstration? Anyone with an old Smith's empire pocket watch or alarm clock can have it tested FOC for radioactivity

Look forward to seeing everyone again,
Paul.
