Wednesday Dave had the day off so we could go into town and find some parts for a minor repair to the car boot; the gas struts had run out of gas, so the boot would not stay open.
We had phoned Ford and they had quoted £75/pair.
We decided it was worth checking out a couple of scrapyards first and would pay up to half price of the new, as you get a warranty with new.
Visited 2 different scrapyards and got a pair for £5 this was an easy job which Dave could also do without having to pay a mechanic, so a good job well done.
The weather the last couple of days has been sunny and windy so I have had laundry on the line both days.
Dinners have been as per the menu plan and this is working well.
I have now worked out a 4 week plan and as I shop 2 weekly I can see exactly what I nned to buy on those shopping trips.
