If this works then posts on my blog should be fed to twitter.
I hope it likes the taste.

First job of the day done.

Replaced old broken waste out/water in fitting on folding camper.
















To this modern replacement with "rubber" bungs  from Caravan Care.  £9.95 delivered, not bad. :



















My only gripe is that the manufacturer didn't see fit to provide some means of retaining the covers, which would almost certainly make a bid for freedom during the first trip away so the brown wires are my own work.

Nissan Micra For Sale

Nissan Micra For Sale

I have been tasked with selling my mother's car as she has had to give up driving due to ill health.

Details:
Nissan Micra 'S' Automatic 3 door hatchback
'51 reg (01/09/2001)
998cc 
149G/KM
11243 miles (yes, that is eleven thousand and a bit, one previous owner was a disabled gent who hardly used the car, Mum bought it in September 2009 and has only used it for shopping and occasional trips Swindon to Reading)
MOT till 25th August 2012
Red with grey interior.

Car is in very good condition apart from a small scratch on the offside rear wheelarch where she caught it on the garage doorway.

We are looking for £1400 ono which seems to be the going rate for low mileage examples.

The car is located in Lyneham, Wiltshire and viewing is going to have to be by appointment as Mum is no longer capable of dealing with this sort of thing so one of the family will have to travel down there to meet any potential buyer.

Questions/interested parties please email me at snaprails@yahoo.co.uk
