THIS week I bought

[Two on Tour]

Bought half a dozen of the "Lock M Out" devices for the window latches at the Peterborough show.

 

[Techno]

Forget those rickety aluminium lath tables that fall to bits
These are the dogs danglies
And you can fit a model boat on them

 

[Minxy]

Just ordered a new petrol lawn mower ... our old one doesn't like starting now and it appears to be one of a few things, all of which won't be cheap to sort, so no point in messing about with it and it's done good service so can't complain as it didn't cost much but will put it on Freecycle/Gumtree in case someone wants to tinker with it or needs parts for their own.

As for the new one, fortunately I'd just got a 15% discount offer from Ebay so the cost is £100 delivered, can't complain at that!

Insurance and storage for the Moho that we haven't even got yet

If you've ever had to open a Fray Bentos pie then you will know that it takes a very determined person to remove the lid so you can cook it.
I like these pies although anyone who likes cooking and makes their own pies will think these so called pies are not very good.
Anyway I’ve always struggled to open these pies until I bought this Culinare One-Touch Can Opener.
I’ve tried this on 4 pie tins now and although on some it did leave a small portion of the can not cut open it was enough to lever the lid off.

Best Wishes Tony

Bought 2 storage bags at Peterborough for Dobbie Doblo my day van, should have bought one of the elctric fittings so I can plug into a normal electric socket, we have n in the big van, but it is in storage. Thought one would be plenty, if a certain someone says 'what you want is' once more I will suggest some changes for his KTM.

 

[Tykatem]

A spare gas regulator for my next travels.

A replacement C400 cassette...

2 Storage hangers for the garage in the motorhome..

The fun never stops does it!

Truma level check

https://www.leisureshopdirect.com/gas/caravan-gas-fittings/gas-level-indicators/truma-levelcheck

Works a treat on calor bottles and gas low 11kg cylinders. Checked it against the mopeka tank level fitted to the gas low-to see if they were in agreement. Readings seem to be the same.

Hope they work better than the Dometic version. Ours drives me mad! Works once then won’t work again in the same place......

@JJ will like this, he’s into his gadgets at the moment....

I have never, ever, ever had the slightest difficulty in removing the lids from Fray Bentos pies.

Guess what?

I use a can opener!

Genius or what?

Another Premium valet from @FJmike at Motorhomevalet. Cracking job once again. Spent the night at the Crown Inn Cerney Wick & Mike did it the next day. All done & dusted by 3.30. Well pleased

 

[Alex and Lesley]

A wee Suzuki scooter from Cupar Motorcycles, they were great to deal with from start to finish.

Lawn mower arrived today but I couldn't have a play with it as it was hissing it down ... we've had wonderful sunshine then rain and hail today! Might have a go tomorrow.

 

[Jaws]

Two sets of brake pads for the back axles.. before running the van over to have it MOTd this morning

I dunno if I am getting old or the bloody wheels are getting heavier.... I think I know the answer !

Ordered a new lawn mower this week.
Problem is, we are away a lot and got fed up with coming home to grass that has gone mad. Last year it was so long that I had to strim it before I could mow it.
The answer is robotic, so ordered one of these:-

Its a Husqvarna 315x which has GPS and mobile connection so can be controlled via a phone app from anywhere.
So, while we are away in the van the robot can keep the garden looking tidy.
Just have to think of a name for it now, apparently it's the done thing to name them.
I rather favour Rodger so that, as I go out the door, I can shout to Kate "I'm just going out to Rodger the robot".
That should keep the neighbours gossiping.

Be interested in hearing how you get on with it.

Won't have it for a couple of weeks yet as we have just had a renovated area of the garden re-turfed. Have to let it settle and start rooting before it's mowed, then the dealer will come in and lay the boundary wires and install the mower.
Will report back when it's up and running.

We have a Robomow called Robby but we have a jockey for ours called Arnie ......

 

[TerryL]

Artificial turf for me, must be cheaper and less fuss?

Surely Arnie is a pilot not a jockey.
I do like it though.

It does make you think and you are probably right.
If I told you the full saga and cost of our robot you would definitely be right.

He was but he's been grounded for dangerous manoeuvres.

Huawei P30 Pro Smart phone

First impressions are very good, fast, responsive and lots of storage.

Bought primarily for the camera specs but will update on that as things progress and I find out how to work it

 

[St Ivian]

Some stickers with our MH dimensions on for the windscreen. Any suggestions on where to stick them? On second thoughts, don’t bother!

Are these something special - any pictures or where you got them from?

 

[St Ivian]

Hi Bustup15 they are nothing special. I had made some for myself but these ones look a abit more professional. They are from branksomebarn.co.uk and cost about £7.50 for the two.

We have them on some thick paper slotted on the rear of the driver's sun visor so if we need to check we can just flip it down.

Me too. I printed it, laminated it and stuck it on my visor. Then I saw these and thought they would look better.
