Thanks, Rob. That's the kind of thing I was looking for (although some close-ups of some of the kit would've been good) - not difficult or particularly time-consuming to have done, one would've thought. Surely someone from AoS has taken some snaps?
I'd certainly have done so, had I gone.

As an aside, I had a great sale, spoke to some very nice people and bought one LP, six cassettes and two power amplifiers!
