That's a nice, workmanlike job, Tony, that is doubtless much stronger than the original fixing.

Cheers Brian. I must admit that I am always concerned that by making a 'strong' repair I might uncover a further weakness somewhere else!

Who's a clever boy then?

Twenty to two. Twenty to two. A good carpenter friend of mine said that you should always have your screw slots facing in the same direction. Twenty to two

What, like the side wall of the van will fall off leaving the wardrobe where it is? Only joking. It looks to be a really good bit of workmanship.

Thank you Roger.
However it never ends does it......
I've just found one of the bathroom door hinges in bits!




I hope I can get one from AL before we go away.

Sorry to hear that. Haven't you had a bathroom door issue before? I seem to remember you showing me a rather clever solution to a door problem

screws breaking and now the bathroom door hinge!! that's a lot of bad luck

makes you wonder , if road surface is really bad and vibrating your eriba to pieces,
fingers are crossed the part arrives quickly

was it the match stick and glue method Randa?

Don't know but you raise an interesting point
Tony. Have you ever had the wheels balanced on the Eriba?
