Bloody crappy Opera browser doesn't work properly on Fruitcakes. Safari isn't much better. Deleted now.

I think that when you've climbed the tree a bit you can forget overtime. Most employers expect 60, 70 hours a week for the basic salary and get it.

Lidl take credit cards in France too. But battery shops dont. It always causes an arguement with their bloody EC cards. Himself starts ranting on at anyone who will listen. Battery purchased. Its the next generation from gel and we are assured entirely maintenance free. Surely nothing else can go wrong..... Because of this EC card thing Sarah, for a few months I´ve had a Barclay credit card, with that came another card, a Maestro which is an EC card, any shop (so far) that doesn´t take the visa takes this one. Its treated just the same as a Visa/credit card, every month or so they collect the money I have spent from our bank. You don´t need a barclays bank account. Won´t help you at the moment, but maybe they do the same thing in France. As long as its an € transaction there´s no charge, assuming the monthly bill is paid in full. Now then, what did he buy you for your birthday Sal, some golden jewlery with preshus stones in, a coffee maker, bread maker, sexy underwear, makeup, new house, a boat, racing bike, cummon Sal we´ve all bin waitin, we wanna know

Spoke to sarah few minutes ago, mainly to wish her 'Happy Birthday'.
Battery is fitted and is charging and they are on their way.
As the temperature is -10C they do not need the freezer so it is switched off.
They are going to look further into their problem on returning home.
So I think we can all stand-down on the battery problem.
R has booked a restaurant for Birthday Dinner so all is now well in their world.

Thanks for the Birthday wishes. I am now the same age as Barry !
I am pretty sure it was the freezer battery that was nit fit for purpose which caused the drawdown on main battery..which on removal we discovered was 200ah. The new fella is only 96 so we shall need another one when we are home.
We have all minds of bells and whistles that tell us what goes. But none of it helps if you abandon your bus with a fecking freezer plugged in !!!
And he just managed to almost kill the dog. Way too close to a truck, slammed anchors on....dog ended up wearing coffee machine. Water everywhere. And then dig farted. Great....

Remember, Baz, press the Any Key! I find on FC if I post in Opera it doesnt show up or doesnt post but then when I look in Safari its there hence the duplicate posts sometimes. Ill maybe see if there is a new version. Glad its all sorted Sarah, enjoy your birthday. I have to say its been a pleasant surprise to find another motorhomer that seems as prone to breaking things as me. Well done. Which reminds me I still need to get to the bottom of why my mains is tripping in the van.
