I'm not having you tear my knickers, Jimbo-lad, even if you are an apprentice Gnome, so keep you thieving hands to yourself. PS: If you want euros, I can sell you some - I bought them years ago and have never used them. They're yours for £2.00 each with free P&P. That's very generous of you Liam old chum. Where would we be without good friends?
I am very sorry for thinking you were a low down, conniving trickster.

I make no apology for starting this thread - in a little over 12 hours it has expanded to three pages and given endless hours of diversionary fun, especially for 747 and Knackers who are once again kicking shit out of each other - oh happy days. All it needs is Tuggers to wade in with his threepen'orth and the tribe will be complete :-)

I'm proud to be a Luddite. He was Welsh, you know, boyo. hmmm, I've never heard of that one? Yep, Hugh Ap Luddite. He was from the valleys and forced down t'pit at age 7 to look after the ponies. At the age of 12 he was given his own pick and shovel but rejected them as new technology that would put grown (or groaning) men out of work. All the miners in the Swansea valley came out on strike when they heard what they believed had been his outburst to the mine overseer: "Boyos don't need shovels!" Unfortunately it had been reported in the local rag, the 'Swansea and South Glamorgan Daily Whine' as: "Boyos don't need hovels", which was construed as an objection to the horrid housing conditions these poor devils were forced to live in. A grand protest march took off for London, to protest to the Prime Minister of the day, and all of 63 miners marched with Hugh Ap Luddite at their head. Unfortunately, when they reached Hackney, it was Hugh's head which ended up on a spike because Mr Milligan - another famous Welsh Git - was quite partial to a bit of head. So, there you are: a potted (heid) history in a nutshell, for those of you who loved mixed metaphors (and reading rubbish)!

Cheap dosh Jim, go for it. I will treat your advice with circumspection Alan.
Mostly because the only Irish banker I have ever heard of is Terry Wogan.

Sorry, can't help, except to hazard a guess that it won't be cheap to fix (what is on a MH?). As a matter of interest, does the fridge work on mains or when your engine is running? EDIT: The way your OP is worded suggests that it does, but just wanted to know for sure. Post 2 on this thread! I add this is a state of wonderment at the depth of knowledge and the helpful nature of our brethren here on Fruitcakes. This place really is the centre of the motorhoming universe IMHO.

I'm so glad you are impressed, Tuggles dear. No doubt you feel proud at being a member of this illustrious and unique band. I know that I certainly do. And to think our dear Barry charges us only £99.99 per annum for the privilege (I don't know how he does it for the price - must be a loss-leader for him), and I am truly grateful. No doubt you feel the same.

I've a sneaky feeling you're taking the Michael but good story I wouldn't take your Michael, Kay, though Barry might if Michael was worth a ransom. Besides, every word I wrote is true; I read it on the internet somewhere, so it must be.
