WEST LANCS BAKEOFF. Saturday Sept 14th

[take5]

Ive had quite a few mini/short notice get togethers recently, but its a year since my last "proper" one. Time for another.

So, 14th September

I live near Ormskirk, about 12 minutes from jct 26 of M6. About 35 mins from Manchester.

I cant offer overnighters Im afraid, but doors are open from 9am ish until 8 pm ish.

Access is easy and you can drive right up to the door, unload, then plenty of parking is available. So, bring those massive speakers and heavy amps.

Safe storage inside and we will have a room just for leaving stuff in, so no need to leave it lying around on the floor. Bring as much or as little in the way of kit as you like. We will try it all.

Last time we had 3 rooms going, but a 4th is available if needed.

If only a small number can make it, I will do a curry. If there are too many for my cooking skills to cope with then, we can get a curry from a really nice local Indian restaurant.

No limit on numbers. More the merrier.

Yes please Brian.

 

[take5]

Yes please Brian.

Great, it will be nice to meet you.

I had a quick look at your kit list to see what you may bring along. Power amps look interesting.

I wont comment more, incase I find myself in.......... another fine mess.

Steve and Vaskan, thats a shame. I thought that may happen with some folks, being just after the schools go back. ( when all the old folks go on holiday ) That is the only weekend that is good for me in September. Never mind.

Vaskan, is there now another Carol Kidd convert?. No hurry for it to be returned. I'll get it when I next see you.

Bob, I know the feeling. Probably a similar conversation to the one I had in the kitchen this morning.

Try " you are looking lovely today, darling", then when she smiles, hit her with the request. Worked for me.

Hope to see you then.

Bob, Mike and Dave... great, it will be good to see you all again.

Robin, hope you can make it over. Darren and/or Anthony again ?

It would be nice to let you hear the AI monos at last, after last years mis-hap.

I have some tips for you on re-seating valves. It involves turning them 180 degrees!!
