RE: Swish Autoglide to Silent Gliss Autoglide

[Robert Chasmer <robert.chasmer@xxxxxxx>]

Most of my local stores don't stock Autoglide stuff any more,  I
remember
having to get B+Q to order the controller/motors for me, and all the
rails
be decidedly dusty at the time.

Due to my current probs getting the new tracks, I'll be keeping an eye
out.
If anyone on the list notices any 2m to 2.5m AutoGlide tracks for sale
in
the Essex / London area, please let me know.

Cheers


Rob
