Does anybody know if the Radiophile event at Sambrook is still on, and if so what time do the doors open?

Many thanks: Ian

The day was most enjoyable - I bought 4 VCR tapes and 5 bags of "junk" for £3. In fact the bags were labelled 100% accurately - There was hardly a single useful thing in any one of the bags, but it was great fun sorting through the huge assortment of widgets and oddments before eventually throwing the whole lot away. Well worth £3 I'd say.

I also enjoyed meeting some old pals who I'd not seen for ages. An excellent day all round.

Kind regards.

From Mike.

Coincidentally, I drove past the turning to Sambrook this afternoon. Unfortunately, I was towing the caravan on our way home from a week's holiday in Yorkshire, and my wife was less than impressed by my suggestion that we pay a visit

We also drove past a great-looking vintage steam rally in Bridgnorth for exactly the same reason...
