Awning manufacture & Repair

HI all After our first two week holiday in the Dormobile, we realised we needed more undercover space and to protect the back door in bad weather. We needed an awning that could withstand very bad weather as we do like to camp in the mountains. I rang everyone in the north of England and no one woul...

Re: 3 way Fridge, portaloo wanted

HI John

I have a 265 porta loo that I'm open to offers on. It is a little scratched on the top, but works fine last time it was used. I replaced it with a 235 as it was too big for the Dormobile.

HI John

Re: Removing the Cab Bulkhead from a Marshall

Hi

My advice, drop the spam. Far too much salt, road kill much more healthy. Bacon and various continental cured sausages are the backup meat.

Sorry, no nowt about cutting the bulkhead out.

Re: Hello from Italy

Hi Dick

Louise wants to come to Italy for our next major trip, but just about to start a extension to the house, so probably won't be this year :( Will definitely be in touch when we know when we are coming.

Re: Something I found in a hedge.

oh! why did I mention the bearings in the gearbox!! Going to meet our lass for lunch today and running a little late. Put my foot down coming off the Silsden roundabout and I now have a gearbox with 4th high and low only.

On the brightside, at least it will be done for summer.
