Old Valve Radios

Alan from Somerfield

For educational purposes I'm trying to track down an old valve radio of any type, working or not.
Anyone got something like that at the back of the shed?
Thanks.

Edit 10/07/2018
I've found what I wanted, so these are no longer needed, thanks.

Christchurch Cathedral Restoration-YES OR NO??

There has been much debate over the restoration of the Cathedral versus building a totally new Cathedral. It appears as ratepayers that at this stage we will be contributing to the Anglican Cathedral restoration. What has interested me as a ratepayer and a Christchurch resident is how many of us want restoration, how many would rather see a totally new Cathedral built. Given we seem to be contributing we should have some right to an opinion on the subject. I personally have no idea whether 90% want restoration or 90% want a new cathedral. As ratepayers I don't feel we have been asked or consulted. So here is your chance, I don't intend this to be a debate about whys or why not, so if you would like to participate could we simply have only RESTORATION or NEW CATHEDRAL typed. No debates please, nobody wins in heated arguments. Will be interesting to see results

The Christchurch City Council has signed off on a $10.6 billion "back to basics" budget that will increase rates bills by more than half in 10 years.

Ratepayers will also have to pay a special levy of about $6.52 a year for 10 years to cover the council's $10 million contribution to help reinstate the Christ Church Cathedral.

The council has described its long term plan (LTP) as "focusing on the basics" after it decided to spend an extra $48m on wastewater infrastructure, $25m to improve drinking water – including getting rid of the chlorine – and to prioritise improvements to roads and footpaths.
