Full location details are here http://www.bvws.org.uk/events/locations.php

Ask your partner to speak with Mike before the auction so he knows why someone other than you is using your number.

That was a long day.
There was some wonderful things in the auction. Got my hands on a KB toaster radio and some Tektronix signal generators designed for oscilloscope calibration.
There were loads of very interesting and early valves and those went for a considerable price each. The pre-war telly went for quite a bit less than I thought.

What a great day!

My thanks to Mike and all the other folks in the hall and in the kitchen, for making it a truly worthwhile and enjoyable event.

Big thanks to Mike and the team for a great day at RWB, a cracking pace through the auction and plenty of tea and cakes to keep you going.

Much less tiring than I had feared, and excellent organisation as ever.
Very enjoyable and went at a good clip (thanks Mike).

Congrats to Mike and the tireless team of helpers (well maybe not tireless as there was evidence of some justifiable flagging towards the end!), including the kitchen crew.
