Being the D!ckhead I am I folded up the camper with the curtains open.
Result? I destroyed a couple of lugs on the plastic zip. It needs to be replaced.
Anyone know of a decent canvas repairer in SE Melb, preferably Dandenong area, who doesn't charge a testicle to fix such things?
Cheers,
Jim.

i was going to post about jens simple but great idea
your darling wife had the greatest idea with her kniting.
on the weekend tabby was wondering what jen was knitting.

fantastic idea.

Jim,
That's a great thing having our wives knitting.
Now they won't pester us for sex to keep themselves entertained. They'd prefer to knit.
Wonderful thing that knitting ???? LOL.
Cheers,
Jim.

Any upholsterer with the suitable zip size should fix that up for you Jim. I'd've been glad to fix you up meself but for the tyranny of distance.

See Peter and Gloria at Westernport Canvas Goods, 14/365 Sth Gippy Hwy, Dandenong South. They have done a number of similar jobs for me over the last couple of years, and their prices are very reasonable.
