The Annual Enthusiasts Day at Cotton Mechanical Music Museum,
Blacksmiths Road, Cotton, near Stowmarket, Suffolk, England, IP14 4QN,
will take place from 10 a.m. on Sunday, October 7, 2011 (always the
first Sunday in October). It is the last day of their season before
they close for the winter.
All larger instruments in the museum -- the fair organs and the cinema
organ -- will be played all day. There will also be many visiting
organs, from small hand-cranked to larger trailer-mounted instruments,
playing both inside and outside on the grounds. There were over thirty
last year. This is a wonderful day out with steam road engines as
well. There will be a few different exhibits this year to celebrate
the 30th Anniversary of the Museum.
I will be having a sales stall at the event and hope to meet many
friends there, old and new. If you need anything in particular, please
email me before 3 p.m. on Saturday, 6th October, so I can be sure to
pack it for you. The museum is situated just off the B1113 six miles
north of Stowmarket, Suffolk. See http://mechanicalmusicmuseum.co.uk/
