Mike Oldfield would have been the icing on the cake but unfortunately no he’s not. It’s conducted and arranged by his “long term collaborator” Robin Smith. The trailer looks brilliant. Enjoy your listen.

When the regs were changed the colouring scheme for the wires was also changed. So in theory that will show the age of the installation. Unless of course you have a reel of the old flex saved in your garage.
I've still got some red and black twin and earth in the garage 1.5mm and 2.5mm( ran out of the 3/029 and 7/029 a while ago)
V. I. R ?
This week I bought a pair of awning foot plates so our rock pegs can be used as the Thule canopy’s holes are the same size and get clogged when removing the pegs.

Ive made and used them for years, brilliant in the mud when pegs wont hold and great on hard ground. THESE

Can I ask which ones you bought ?
I bought the Fiamma ones Wizz in the end as their holes were best suited to my rock pegs. Got them from Here and if you look on their website they may give you a pop up with 5% off. I didn’t get it when I actually bought them
probably because I didn’t accept the offer at the start of browsing. Y friend has used them for many years and had no problems. Came with pegs too, not that I would use those.
Many thanks, I’ll take a look.

Emptying the loft where you can't stand up, crawl on hands and knees. Been in there 3 times already in the past week. Had to empty one side when we had new boiler. Management instructed that bet if we empty and get rid of stuff. Nearly there now. On plus side got previous lounge telly out and can now watch World Cup whilst decorating.

It's OK if there are no medical issues, otherwise you are at their mercy.

- MH newbie but we owned a caravan previously.
Sent off my renewal for HGV C+E complete with medical. Took about six days to return but I have an active driver CPC. Don't know if that makes a difference as they may think you need the licence for work (which I do occasionally).

I dont think this makes any difference, they are working to the approach of get new incoming done as they arrive and work on the back log as they go along.
I remember speaking to someone in the airline industry about flight delays one plane had gone tech and the passengers were stranded another came in and left on time
The thoughts were, the delayed passengers were already unhappy and going to complain, so the later flight left on time with happy people while the earlier passenger stood and watched
only one lot of complaints to deal with and one lot of compensation to pay out
I do remember reading, in one of the haulage trade mags that still get sent to me, that HGV & PSV licences do take some precedence because of the shortage of working drivers but that was a few months ago during Covid, perhaps it has now changed but I doubt it?

Some seat-base storage bags for Grand Canyon S - finally got somewhere for shoes etc to go. Pretty much perfect fit - just got to add some velcro pads to hold them tight against the bases.

Bought a pair of language translating earbuds as I find with being dyslexic I struggle with learning foreign languages, so
hopefully, these will eliminate the poor pronunciation of the few words I do know and a lot of the usual finger pointing.
