Reparations


There are sales on in the luggage department of Myers and most other places at the moment, and last year I suffered a blowout in the left wheel on my bag.  It cost $75.00 and it's been around the world a couple of times, or maybe more come to think of it, and I'm not sure that we've had our money's worth just yet.

So today I started to repair the wheel axle, and the other wheel mount, and the clip on the handle, and the internal braces, and I made a new internal stiffener.   Oh, and new mounting brackets for the wheels.

By the time I've finished it will weigh more than our luggage allowance, but at least I'll get a few more years out of it.

Thanks for taking the time to comment, please leave your name if you post "anonymously" so I can guess who you are! I do attempt to respond, but my goodness I'm a slacker!

I'm sorry I've had to turn word verification on for a bit - hopefully a few days will be enough - because of a bit of a problem with spam!
