Tonbridge Audiojumble February 2006
I attended the Tonbridge Audiojumble this year at the Angel Centre (a community sports centre), Tonbridge, Kent. It was held on 12 February 2006 and visitors are allowed multiple entries on the day!
Some visitors rushed in with smiles and out with loads of stuff, and repeated using the "permit" stamped on their hands! I would share some photos here!
It was such an usual winter day in the UK, rain and a little bit chilly. Big thanks for Paul Whatton who let me stayed at his house and drove me to the Tonbridge Audiojumble on the following day. It took more than an hour to drive on the motorway from Paul's house to Tonbridge!
It was GBP 4 for entry per head at or after 10:30 a.m. Early birds paid GBP 10 per head for 9:30 a.m. entry.
Not only that, I learnt from the guy who "ran" a stall that he got entry earlier than 9:30 a.m. by hiring a stall himself. Indeed many stuff on show and for sale were very cheap and interesting! At 10:40 a.m., there were already lots of people!
Worthwhile to come? Yes! Definitely. Particularly I could meet so many celebrities in audio forums of the internet.
