Morning All. 
I don't think I shall be messing with the mighty mini today in this weather the new dizzy can stay safe & dry inits box.
Nothing new to report, usual chores to do (fetch wood, lay fire up ready and the like).
Be careful out here if you are in the windy spots today.

Mornin all!
Went to the theatre yessdi, "A man for all seasons"!!
Somehow seems appropriate with the weather we are having.
Suddenly, after I contacted PALS on W's behalf seeing as the hospicle was not doing anything:
She saw a stoma nurse Weds.
Today she is going in for premed.
She will be having her long awaited stomach op on 6th Feb.
Tis wondrous what a letter can do!
So we now have to get our paperwork in order should the worst happen.
Got the gearbox service kit for the D2 autobox as well, will be doing that when it calms down, and tightening up all the bolts I can see on the bottom of the valve chest, as has been advised.
Weather here a bit windy but not too bad.
Take care and have a decent day folks!!

Hi all.
Re tow-bars and insurance.
I just rang SAGA and was informed that with them tow-bars are something you do not have to notify them about, so that is interesting. It figures on a list of about 4 things amongst which were mud-flaps, dash cams and protective paint!
However they no longer insure caravans etc etc, although they used to.
So I dug deeper to see if I was at least covered third party if I accidentally sideswiped a Rolls Royce or something with my trailer, and that answer is YES!
Huge relief.
I thought I would be as this was always the case before.
But just to let you know.
Maybe a I'll put this up on the General section of the forum.
I'll check first to see if it hasn't already been dealt with.
Edit. Not it hain't so I just have!
Good deed done for the day!

Unbelievably I put up a post on Nextdoor asking for anyone who knew of anyone who repaired PCBs as the bloke I used in the past has retired.
Not expecting much response, straightaway a bloke, retired electronix engineer, popped on and offered to have a look.
Well chuffed!
Things seem to be taking a more positive turn for us recently.
Hope this holds until after Feb 6th. (W's op).

The phone call to SAGA was fun!
The lady who answered didn't know the answers to my questions so she had to "arx" a colleague. He didn't know either so she had to go to the underwriter's website and go to their Q&A section. She then "arxed" it a series of questions and surprisingly got quite clear answers.
We had to talk over a screaming child. So either she was working from home or the peeps working at SAGA are very young!
Anyway she was very pleased that I had "arxed" her all these questions as she had learned from them.
She arxed me if she could help me wiv anyfink else, so I was pleased to be able to tell her "no, fanks" and to say that I would let her go and see to her baby!
