Rose Addison

It is with deep regret and sadness that I have to inform you of the sad loss of Rose Addison
(dearly loved wife of Tony) who passed away peacefully in hospital during the afternoon of
Thursday 27th January.

I am sure we would all wish to send our condolences to Tony and his family at this sad time.

I will post details of the funeral as soon as I have them.
 

 

Shows and Events 2012

Friday 24th February, 7.00 pmSkittles Evening.
Venue is the Blackpole Inn, Worcester WR3 8SQ.  Tickets are £5 per head and this includes a sausage-and-chips supper.  Please put your name on the list at the pool side and pay your money to Gill.

Sunday 11th March,  Wythall Radio Rally.
Venue is Woodrush Sports Centre, Shawhurst Lane, Hollywood, Wythall, B47 5JW10 a.m to 3 p.m.
Please don't ask what this has got to do with model boatsMany artefacts that aren't boat-shaped and don't float still exhibit the attributes of a model boat, and to the dedicated model boater these are fair game.  Such items can be found a-plenty at the Wythall Radio Rally.  Last year I acquired several old radio valves, various coils, a bent aluminium chassis, the odd transformer and lots of electronic components, some of which have subsequently made their way into real model boats.  It's a great day out, honest!  For details see their website at http://www.wythallradioclub.co.uk/rally/  See you there!
