I'm guessing UTF-8 shenanigans here... that's 5 UKP, of course.
With the event now just under five weeks away, Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club hope that all RISC OS users will have the Wakefield Acorn & RISC OS Computer Show in their diaries for Saturday 27th April.[snip]
We will also have the usual Charity Stall raising funds for Wakefield Hospice; thanks to your help we have raised in the region of 28,000 over
the years.

The c.s.a.announce Charter does clearly say:
"3. No top bit characters may be used (eg. pound sign)"

I still have a box of second-hand software/small hardware to donate to
the charity stall, as mentioned re the South West Show; would anybody be
able to take that up from London?

I do normally spot these and edit the post accordingly (I've given up
sending posts back and asking the originator to edit, because people don't listen or learn), but please don't assume I will do this for you every
time.

You cannot be serious!
That's so archaic...

Can't help here, but I *might* be going to the London one later in the
year (I believe it's moved to North London. It rather depends on
exactly where they are and where you are. It's something like 30 year
since I last drove into London {scary}

Although I'm told that I may be sending a replacement post to csaa shortly, in case anyone was scared off by the apparent 1750% increase in ticket
prices this year...
Looking at later posts in this thread, it seems it is in Harrow, and that looks a lot better than having to drive to it's previous location in North london, the reason I don't go to the London show. I will consider it this year.

It is still inside Khan's expanded ULEZ zone though. So while my 2009
petrol car which does 18mpg is OK, the wife's 2014 diesel which does
45mpg gets fleeced.

Feltham's in North London? I suppose it's north of the river, at least!
Now, the new location is in North London, I'll grant you that... :-)
I'm in South London (and never the twain shall meet!)
I wasn't aware that the venue had moved, but apparently it's going to be
in Harrow, which is closer but ironically probably takes more time to
get to than the previous out-of-London venue from this quadrant of the >city....

It's a long time since I went but what I remember was a trip down
the M1 and then a dreadful journey to the hotel, for what seemed miles, through built-up areas with heavy traffic.
When we arrived, the car park seemed almost overflowing, although we
arrived at around the time the show opened.
Wakefield, of course, was sited brilliantly but I've not been since it
moved up to Bradford.
If I go at all, I think I'll go by train. Twice as long travelling but
far less stressful. So sorry, Harriet, I won't be able to help.
