Five Continental 4 Seasons 215/70R15 to replace the 8 year old Bridgestones that were never any good on grass. The van was new in March 2014, so the Bridgestones were nearly three years old when fitted in the factory.

After pricing up on t’internet, decided to pay a couple of pounds extra to have our well-regarded local commercial tyre company to supply and fit. Enjoyed the improved ride on the way home. New tyre dates were week 36 this year - so pleased with that.

A front indicator lens for the offside mirror, after being hit, while parked, by a speeding ambulance, just hope it got to the patient/hospital in time.

A new MoT and habitation check - all okay but I'm going to need a couple of tyres before Morocco (or anywhere long distance). Despite them being well legal at 3.5mm that's low enough for me.

Oh yes - and a new adapter for my locking wheel nuts. Seems some oik with an air-powered spanner has damaged the tines inside it (no not Dave - he's had to sort it).

Thanks dave newell lvs

A deposit on SAP's semi-air rear suspension for our Carthago ... we were living off baked beans on toast when we bought the MH ... now we're down to just the bread!

One has to keep one's standard up so of course there's butter on it ... lashings of the stuff ... I've gotta keep my 'blubber' reserves up to keep the cold out!

Two x twin switched USB sockets to fit either side of the bed to plug in iPhones etc for charging. We have usb charging points in the bedroom but not close enough to the bed to be useful
Just need to wire them up tomorrow.
And a new old laptop. One of my Panasonic Toughbooks ( CF-C1) packed up last week and I used it for astronomy and programming a couple of scanners and transceivers.
Cost new ( in 2011) a ridiculous £2000, mine, delivered to France for £103!
Should be delivered tomorrow.
Oh, and a bottle of Don Papa rum

International driving permit for France.. just in case you understand !

 

[Minxy]

The aforementioned SAP semi-air suspension has now been fitted on the rear, total cost £2,000. ... so no baked beans and can't afford butter now ... so we're down to just breadcrumbs!

 

[Kingham]

A ‘new to me’ car.

Got sick of commuting in the van, high fuel costs and worrying about daily parking in public car parks.

 

[TerryL]

Two new front tyres
Tube of Sikaflex to reseal the strip between cab and habitation roof - did a temporary repair to stop water, now going to do it properly - if it ever stops raining!
New Firetvstick 4K - I'll transfer the present one in to the van. Amazon Black Friday deal
New "3" 24Gb data-sim card to get the internet for the Firetvstick...... Managed to catch the one day Amazon deal.

 

[gus-lopez]

A roof box.(Hopefully if the seller ever replies)Not that I actually want to use one but am having to face the fact that the amount of stuff I have to cart back means it isn't going to be easy sleeping in the van so fill up a roof box

[Next Stop]

An MOT Certificate! Quite pleased as it was the first one I have bought since owning the van so it's good to know that there is nothing major wrong with it .
Sadly I can't say the same for the ol' T25, since owning the Crafter the T25 has taken back seat and been mostly laid up which resulted in a £600 MOT bill to sort out seized up brakes and a spot of welding

 

[Jagtazman]

Mortar... well thats what it feels like as just about to have house repointed...
