What Have You Bought Today?

The joys of having staggered wheels, tyres which are directional and needing a spare wheel, just in case when we do the Skye thing. First time in my life I've bought a 'pre loved' tyre. But as a spare multi wheel it'll do. Not directional, it's on an 8.5J rim, so a front wheel wheely. Michelin Latitude, non directional, good tread from Baig tyres in Worcester for £50. Should the worst happen oop North it may get us out of a (pot)hole! It's going to live on that Bak Sak and Crack towbar carrier which is being withheld from me until Sunday.

When is it your heading north again Wayne?
 
A twin Cabbunk for the kids - they trialled them out and seemingly love them. Let’s see how the first night on them goes!

Small review : easy to fit, feel sturdy as hell. SWMBO (9st) lay on the top bunk to check my work

Quick trip to go outdoors for a little restock. Picked up an electric hookup adapter for when we go to France next month.

I also treated myself to an OEX stove. I went for the larger Tacana one as it'll only live in the van, plus it came with a few extras over the smaller Hiero. Can't wait to try it out!

Been at the Motorhome and Campervan show in Newark. Managed to get out with only spending a fiver on a cable bag. Quite sure if it had stopped raining long enough, SWMBO would have found all sorts of stuff we definately needed. :whistle:
