First proper 'downtime' weekend in ages.
Had cheap promo tickets to a local airshow so went to Old Buckenham - quaint event.
Family here today in the hot tub and lunch outdoors (and it's summer!) now left in peace... back to the grind tomorrow as I tidy up my workload and refuse to take any more.

Partition between beds and toilet. I couldn't get the wood I wanted so I've used the wood I had. Laminated with gorilla glue and screws(removed after)

Got my local landscape gardener in to dig out a turning/parking space for the new tranny. This avoids the need to reverse past obstacles down our twisty narrow entrance.

The trip up the road too daunting eh!

I don't blame you, it's as much as we can manage these days, and we're used to it.

Cost of item + refurb + fuel wasn't so much more for something newer even allowing for some mods to make it fit this model, I did offer a package deal to your neighbour but He chose not to
