No it isn't from Ireland, it is from the south of England actually. I can
travel a bit for something interesting, but Ireland would be a bit too far
for me :-). I am missing some blanking panels though, so if you have any
going spare....
It was posted to the list in April, but I only collected it a week ago.
Regards
Rob

Hi, its not from Irland by any chance is it ? I got a 11/50 from there
about that
time and I allways suspected there was a 45
assosiated with the same
system somewere. If it is this one then you may be missing the front
bessel,
if so mail me as I have it here!
