Karchered the front brick sets today. Borrowed a light weight small rotary machine and while I washed, Carole scrub...no she didn't, she came behind with the yard broom and made sure the dirty water went to drain. Had to park the car where our neighbours usually do on the road and then the Eriba part on the pavement and part on the grass. Felt it was much better than high pressure as that would wash all the grit and sand from the joints.

Well done sir, probably a nice job to do in this heat. Despite my advice to the contrary himself has started laying a patio.

Replaced the rubber seal/trim around the pop top. Took 2 mins to get the old one off 4 hours to get new one fitted. Very sore hands now

Just out of interest as mine needs doing did you get your rubber seal from Jandi ? Could you tell roughly how much it costs. Thanks

Cleaned out the gutter, set up the water butts, cut the grass, hung out the washing, swept the patio and tried to reduce the burr in the awning rail a bit more 'cos Hymer actually fitted it with a join on the side where you fit the awning.......using an awning rail tool and some very fine emery. Want to make sure it's all nice and lovely for the new Wigo Vision canopy to try out today.

Tom, I bought the seal from Seals Direct. Purchased about 6 months ago but found it impossible to fit as it was so cold at the time. Jandi was selling replacement seal for £9:00/metre whereas AL price was £20/metre
The one I chose which is same as other folks recommended was ETS 1556. Not same profile as original but I believe better. Difficult to fit as indicated but did find after struggling using brute force that applying PTFE spray in the seal channel made it a lot easier.
ETS 1556 is £3.82/metre

Hubby treated some rust under Betty and I finally fixed the droopy blind. Lovely and springy now.

We set to and did the patio round the back this morning. Looks good, having just sat on it with aperitifs before dinner..
