The resurrection of Doc, bringing a 20 year old neismann Bischoff Flair back to life after 12 years off road.

Ah hello there , I did wonder if you might be on here I was going to ask then got sidetracked
Yes, when you said you had had a lot of advice from different people, I immediately thought of this forum.
I was always a person looking in, but the fridge made me bite the bullet so I could place on this sites classified, then wife placed on FB marketplace.
It was lovely to meet you and Gary, and a good chat.
Best of luck with ‘Doc’s resurrection, I will follow with interest 👍

Yes I'd said to Gary when we left " I'll have to email Ian later and mention the forum to him " was nice to meet you. I'd have chatted all afternoon lol but Gary was desperate for the toilet 🤣🤣
 
Thanks for doing the Facebook messaging for me by the way ... much appreciated. I've not been on Facebook for years. I do miss marketplace though
Thats all i go on, never ever post or read the drivel but marketplace sometimes comes up trumps

Looks good ,shiny did you get the window back in?
We got it through the door by removing doors of fridge and the door catch , seal and fly screen off the camper

Gary is a legend ...carrying a fridge on his knees lol. I thought we'd need a hand but we managed
 
Can’t keep up! Not looked at this thread for a few hours and I’m six pages down! 🤣🤪

I’ve done it again… not looked at the thread all day and it’s a double coffee catch up needed! 🤷‍♂️

Slow down… it’s more like the morning thread pace is this level of posting!! 🤪

Don’t want to miss anything… 😉🤣
 
The fridge looks mint and looks like it fits 'like a bit on the pot'
Looks fantastic it's in lovely condition inside and out . Just hoping it works lol.

Will leave it off and standing till Tomorrow and then switch it on .

Element was £126.99 - purchased 13.02.2024
Black box was £204.50 - purchased 29.04.2024
If going forward the reason for fridge not working on EHU is either of above is faulty, if still within warranty I can ask for replacement for you.
Best of luck, and thanks for advice re Dog in EUu
Nice to know another Fun man close, we live in St COLUMB, glad you were able to help Tam and Just Smithy

I’m so pleased that you’ve actually decided to leave it for 24 hours you are supposed to with any fridge you move because it disturbs whatever it is they put in these things. Even though we moved one from the kitchen out to the garage we still left it 24 hours, so I hope tomorrow after it’s had its 24 hours all will be well.

Such a brilliant find whoever posted the link I can’t remember as everyone else said this moves so quick you can’t keep up. I hope you too have a rest this evening. Don’t wear Gary out.
 
Jeez it's cold down ere tonight...reminds me of the wild Atlantic way .. its freezing, I've had to put a jumper on and get under my travel rug .. milo is all wrapped up in a blanket. Might have to fill a hot water bottle lol.

Seen a nice beach today in newquay right where Ian the fridge man lived .. got out the car to take a photo and realised I've been on that beach .....24 years ago when I came to Cornwall in my vw camper with ex wife and son .. we stayed on a campsite near there and were on the beach in the rain lol.

My son aged 2 at the time made a friend on the campsite ... I asked his name and he said jessiah.... I said "what " and he said the Same again ... I still wasn't sure so asked a third time ...same response. I never did find out if his name was indeed jessiah or if he said Joe sawyer .with an accent 🤣🤣

I said to garry it's funny the things you remember from the past when you see or hear something familiar .

The 3-way fridge in my Hymer had never worked on 12 V since I bought it and then one evening for something to do I disconnected the 12 V element’s cables from the fridge’s PCB and connected them directly to the van’s12 V supply. Bingo, by the morning the freezer was well down in temperature. So thinking about your 240 V element not working, if the element's OK you could try connecting it directly to a 240 V supply (suitably fused) and see if that works.

In a conversation today with Just smiffy he made a comment that when he goes to the toilet he finds dog hairs on his unmentionables ..... should I be concerned leaving my dogs with him ? 🤔


I never find dog hairs on my unmentionables lol 😆 😂 🙃

I think you'll find he's a lot closer to the ground than you are :X3:

Exactly…. It’s like a fur rug on that floor, and when wearing shorts that fur gets everywhere… and in the mornings the dogs come running in and their snouts are fecking everywhere….😆🤣
 
I’ve had a nice long chat with milo and he told me in confidence that he would rather stay and live with me, mainly because he likes me more and he said he gets bullied by the bigger dogs and its much nicer on my sofa…. 🐕‍🦺😝
