You should have ran it down to the caravan and assessed the external water and waste set-up.

I might today. A mate has asked if I fancy a pint though. It'll be the fifth time since last March.

Tightened the power steering belt on the mazda with success. How accessible is that adjuster. It's fully adjusted now. I think I'll splash out and buy both belts.
Free fixes are the best.

I've just noticed on that picture my quality ebay stainless hose clips. They must have shit metal worm screws and they've started to rust after only six months. I bought sixty of the fuckers of varying sizes.

I know. The front driver's is warped and the sticky slider is back. You're not suggesting I just change one slider and one disc?
