It's sometime4s a very small world.  Not only did I have a rather nice pair of Wharfedale "Dovedale" speakers, with which I was quite satisfied for the better part of twenty years, I still go to the factory quite regrlarly; situated in Idle, to the east of Bradford.

The quite substantial Wharfedale factory is now given over to the manufacture of display fridges for the big supermarkets, and I was last there on Saturday.

One puzzle remains however, because I had always associated another name with the Wharfedale speakers; that of a certain Dr Bailey.

Does this ring a bell with anyone?
