I met him a while ago at his old junkyard, & soon after the move to the new place - really nice guy. GOJY appears to still be going, and is well worth a visit if you're anywhere near East London. I think they have a cafe there as it's become a visitor destination http://www.godsownjunkyard.co.uk/ BTW on the subject of places to visit, any Tim Hunkin fans should know that he's just opened a London arcade full of his eccentric machines : http://www.novelty-automation.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
