THIS week I bought (4 Viewers)

[Terry]

A Bosch cordless jigsaw to go with the Einhell one It's like new but the battery is dead -left it flat and put it away so now it won't charge His loss my gain, I have 2 spare batteries and for the grand price of 60 quid -he bought a leccy cheapo one for 60£ hence me getting the cordless one for £60
The Einhell one is very impressive Used it quite a lot today for both metal and wood

Got myself a router table and router only to find out that the collets are 6 & 8 mm and the cutter i want to use is 1/4in. so wont fit, so went to b&q and got another router which has 1/4 & 1/2 collets but now that wont fit the table!!! so gave up for the day and having a beer.

Monsieur Brico part of the same group as B&Q I believe Allan, which explains the prices n'est pas?
If and when you follow up @Neckender 's idea for mower racing can I come and take part (I'm First Responder Trained)
We could also have a Broadway owners meet simultaneously!

I'm not sure whether my mower at home is faster, but I can do lawnmower racing and Broadway owners club meet in Brittany from Mid June onwards. ( the grass will need cutting again then)
Bring your own mower and Broadway.........

Oh, and I bought even more copper fittings. (16mm 90 degree compression joints. €6.95 each........!) and ordered new windows with solar powered shutters for the whole house.

Broke now.

Steve the collets will expand into the shank holding the bits firm -you can do almost everything without the table -just that sometimes the table makes it easier for some applications

[Steve]

The 8mm collet will not close up enough to hold 1/4" and the 6mm is too small.

We Bought an 100w folding solar panel this week, will soon pay for itself by using cheaper sites & wild camping, works great, comes in a nice bag with all attachments & a gauge, got it from Amazon

 

[arao99]

Hymer Esis t 414 hope to have it wed 6th May

 

[vin0114]

I have a fitted 100w panel and a separate 42w panel that I put on the roof angled southwards so no worry about it getting nicked I feed the lead through the bathroom top light to the regulator. Its amazing how much charge goes to my two leisure batteries and well exceeds the permanent 0.2 amp battery loss even on dull days.

A new Remis skylight to replace the broken one in the bathroom. Excellent service from Leisureshop Direct. Good price and prompt delivery. Very easy to fit too , much to my relief.

I have just bought a pair of Hunter wellies for the summer bargain price £15 well pleased

 

[golly]

These arrived today in preparation for our forthcoming trip to Scotland, last time we both had one of the little buggers . Used some fine forceps last time, thought i'd try these. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OTOM-TICK...454?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3a7929663e

 

[Trikeman]

Well I didn't buy it, but Mrs T did. As a slightly belated birthday present Mrs T bought me a Manffrotto Mono-pod for my camera. Have been wanting one of these for a while and was hoping to give it a go today - but alas the weather has been crap.

Trikeman.

OD, S new corner store Saint Helens ask for Chris.

 

[Lenny HB]

Brought & fitted an AVS30, don't normally do EHU but as we are going on a Greek ferry later in the year thought it worth the investment.

 

[gibbon]

Just bought a small prefabricated concrete garage to go in place of the huge 40 year old concrete & steel reinforced one being slowly demolished by contractors as I type this.
This is all so I can park our van at home. Let's just hope I can manoeuvre onto the drive from our very narrow unadopted service road, otherwise I've spent 3 grand on a visitors car park!

Fingers crossed

 

[parknride]

I bought these in rothenburg, for if/when the sun ever comes out again!

Just bought a new Bosch drill as my one year old Makita packed up again with its second duff gearbox. Hope the new one is better!

 

[tonyidle]

Ordered some the windbreaks, gate and skirt from Jormax to make an enclosure for the dogs to save having to tie them to something. A bit expensive but the consensus seems to be that it's worth the money. Will report back when it's arrived.

I have one for that purpose & it's perfect. I changed the ends on the bracing poles for 22mm plastic pipe clips & set the lengths permanently to the fabric 'tubes' spacing. I did this after a couple of uses & it makes assembly much easier. You will also need a heavy rubber mallet if you don't have one already.

 

[scotzsue]

Motorcycle News, MMM and a couple of half price racks of lamb.
