Blow me down, a hi-fi show in CORNWALL no less

[nonuffin]

I never thought I would see the day, but there is going to be a hi-fi show here in Cornwall :eyebrows:

Thursday 18th October at the County Showground near Wadebridge open 12.00 noon until 8.00pm.

Organised by H B H Woolacotts, normally noted for white goods and TVs, so will they be stocking hi-fi from now on I wonder?

Some decent names there. :)

According to their web site they already do. https://www.hbh-woolacotts.co.uk/audio/hifi-separates/

Makes my blood run cold to be honest, judging by the experience I had when I bought a TV from them a while back. Still, mustn't knock it as hi-fi dealers are very thin on the ground down here.

I'm amazed that there are businesses with that model still trading, they all disappeared long ago up here. I suppose that's the south-west for you. Are people still driving around in Austin 1100s and Triumph Toledos?

Amazing, I live about 10 miles away from the showground but I am no longer interested in purchasing "new" hi-fi separates these days, only second hand, so will not be attending.

They are a good independent company with high street shops across Cornwall, so I wish them well with this show.

The Cornish love vintage vehicles btw.

12 litre V8 supercharged tractors are favourite

Funny you should say that. A bloke in our village has just sold his Triumph Toledo and now drives an M-reg Metro. Mind you, we’re a bit more modern and sophisticated this side of the Tamar.

I'd sooner have the Toledo (only 'cos it's easier to work on :))

Sophisticated? When you don't know how to dress and eat a Scone properly yet? :lol::lol:
