autumn grand junk sale Thursday 23rd October, spring clean time!

[John Gumb]

Folks,

Thanks to the brilliant volunteer crew once again being available, I am delighted to announce the autumn grand junk sale will take place in just under two weeks time on Thursday 23rd October.

As Simon mentioned last meeting, if you are willing/able to park on the road nearby it would be appreciated as the car park does get very busy.

Donated pre-loved "stuff" is sold in support of the club so it's a great opportunity for a clear out.

Venue: 2nd Woodley Scout Group, Vauxhall Park, Vauxhall Dr, Woodley, Reading RG5 4EA https://what3words.com/bowls.blame.lace

Start time: 8pm

The auction will start at 8pm sharp so it's best to arrive early (eg. 7:30pm) to have a look at the wares and get your raffle ticket (see below).

Please bring along any unwanted broadly tech based items in order to support the club. Also bring your cash along to buy -er- lots of useful stuff!

If you've not been before....here's how it works.

If you wish to take part in the auction, you need your "number". Get this BEFORE the auction starts (in the form of a raffle ticket) from the accounting crew (David M0DHO, Barry M0SQZ, Ian G6IZA). If you win an item, please shout out your number so they can record what you have bought.

Please note:

* If you successfully bid on something, you will need to wait until the end (10pm) to settle up.

* If you bring junk along and it doesn't sell then please be prepared to take it home with you.

* Any on-commission items need to be marked clearly with the name of the beneficiary.

* Particularly David M0DHO on the books has a tough job making sure that everything squares up. Please listen to directions from David, Ian and Barry. Communications here are key to making things work.

Finally,

Please read the rules (enclosed).

* Even if you don't wish to buy, the evening is always entertaining.

* Prices tend to be extremely affordable!

* If we have time to run refreshments then we will do so but please bring your own mug.

* Marvel, again, at how Denis G4KWT manages the PA. The perfect example of some that works so well you simply don't notice it.

* THANK YOU to all volunteers and indeed everyone involved as the junk sales are vital in supporting the club!

If I have missed anything then please let me know.

No zoom session this time.
