REMINDER - Blackpool Rally this Sunday!

Post by MrWeetabix »

This is a classic in the calendar. Get down and support the rally, maybe even pick up a bargain at the same time, or just some fish and chips!

Norbreck Castle Exhibition Centre, Blackpool FY2 9AA.

There is car parking available and a talk-in station will be on the air. Doors open 10.15am for disabled visitors and 10.30 for the general public. As well as trade stands there will be a Bring & Buy and special interest groups. An RSGB book stall will be attending. Dave, M0OBW on 01270 761 608 or by email to [email protected] (www.narsa.org.uk)

The three questions that spring to mind are....

WTF does UKFMGW stand for, what do they sell and how much discount can you get us? :lol:
