| A simple Shed (man cave) must be the first thing.
Irishman has some experience with such things, we are sure he will comment in due course. ________________________________________________________________________________ Proud winners of Spike's Trophy 2017

| Stan helped move some furniture between my brother and the mother in laws. Then on the return took some rubbish to the local tip. (Great job: Glass dining table & 4 chairs, double bed and a lounge storage unit). At the tip I reversed him into a space vacated by a late bay, which left the tip operatives speculating on the origin and age of Stan. Beat that Zipvan | |

| Well we were laid-up to avoid the salty roads - but there is no salt.
So an unexpected and enjoyable 50 mile run out for coffee and cakes. Just like Springtime.

| Like Scooby I took advantage of the warm, sunny morning and gave Eddie a wash and wax using a range of Autoglym I picked up on Black Friday. Impressed with the end result. | |

| Tucked Tallulah into bed for a few weeks, she may well be used as a spare bedroom if anyone wants to stay over. ________________________________________________________________________________ www.alpinegrovetouringpark.com

| Not strictly speaking 'today' .. but on Christmas day Louie became a safe haven at the side of the road for my two children and Niece & Nephew at the scene of a horrible road accident, which resulted in my In-Laws having to be cut from their car. The many 'faces' of a brazi-bay ...... not just there for the good times but a safe haven and protector when needed.

| @swansal, hope you are all recovering after the horrible events on Christmas Day. Baylee has recently had a wash & wax and yesterday Dave took the roof rack off to give that some attention (once the wooden slats have dried out) and gave the roof a clean whilst up there too! Today Baylee took us for a drive to Holkham beach and we had lunch sat by the van...so mild for December! | |

| I went down to Southampton on Saturday to see the Palace put the Saints to the sword (but got wet in the stand  ) Sunday night, drove down to Dorset, near Dorchester, ready for a work meeting on Monday morning. I parked in a pub car park and although I did wake up with the rain on the roof in the night, I managed to sleep through the thunder and lightning  (apparently). Wasn't that cold, either, all wrapped up in thermals and new duvalay bed  P. | |

| You can get spares for everything but the ignition from standard blanks.
The ignition key will be more expensive as it will require a 'chip' - these guys can help . . .

I tried to straighten a car key once and it broke. If you have access to a vice it maybe worth a try but go carefully. | |
