So, I sorted the new tap, fitted, hooked up the microswitch, and blew a 25 amp fuse? I think I need to re-think the connections...
But I bought a dining table today, and think the leak around the roof hatch is FINALLT sorted. It had better be, or it's MUCH worse than I thought! Otherwise, just a can opener, really... |

You're bringing a dining table? Oak, pine? Full set of chairs? Is this for comfort at the meeting?

Well.... 'Er Indoors insisted on a new can opener, and it needed testing!
The 'table' is a horribly wobbly beer spiller of a thing, but it means spillage occurrs OUTSIDE... |

Embracing my inner geek this year, have bought a lightweight gilet to wear at the race. Hoping I can use all the pockets and then need just a lightweight backpack rather than carry round the world on my back.

Just bought a Lowepro Fastpack 250, oddly from Jessops, never thought I would buy anything from them again.
Next will be a second battery charger. |

Going to pick up a small generator this evening. Should be enough for a small camping fridge and all the small electronics everyone in my group is bringing along.

Bought a folding bike at Decathlon which served me well during the weekend, although Mulsanne Corner is a bit far on it. Excellent stuff for the short trips though.
My thermal underwear also came in very handy during Saturday night. Much chillier than I anticipated! |

Would reccomend the bag, but not the chewing gum that some... lovely person dropped on it at the drivers' parade.

Retards who chew gum and then just drop it on the ground should be barred - from everywhere - IMO. I had to scrape the muck off my shoes twice during the week.......

Talking of niggles? I managed to back into a bloody concrete pole trying to exit TR on Monday. Punctured the ali skin, and shattered the bathroom mirror inside... NOT a happy bunny. Trying to source parts to repair, prior to talking to my insurers. DAMMIT!!!

Can report my gilet was a big success, amazing what I could cram in to the various pockets, meaning less to lug round on my back. Also being a summer weight one meant it was quite cool, (temp not looks according to my wife!)
