Well, you used to be able to buy them over the internet and get them shipped. So i don't see any reason why Polaroid films should be disallowed.
Plus, i want one to play with

No sign of the VFDs though... evidently the post takes longer than I thought.

Arrived here in snowy Kent this morning...
I have a whole bunch of stuff to put in - will probably re-box it. I'll definitely take the Polaroid film and maybe a cap or two, but I have a LOT of nice stuff that is not worth the trouble to eBay, and which I have simply loads of (several lifetimes worth)...

I'll update this post over the next few days as I get a chance to sort things out - I can't actually get into my workshops at the moment as the door has swollen and frozen shut...

wow, just love that picture. Can't see any disturbed snow. Though I'd hate to have so much snow on my doorstep. Good luck getting access to your workshop.

surely someone else in the uk wants to take part? perhaps ask around on #hvcomm etc?
or here?

EDIT: if there are no other UK requests then Dalus should get the box next.
