Kitchen and Cars

On saturday, I had to sort out the dimmer switch in the dining room. I thought there was a loose wire in the fitting. My son sorted it out and replaced the switch. That's what you keep a son for!

He also fitted the wing mirror onto his car. It wasn't quite the same as the original. He had to dismantle it and refitted it.

Were going to move everything back into the kitchen over the weekend but the washing machine still needs installing, and there are the valences etc.

He bought a haynes manual for his car but the wing mirror shown in the book is completely different to the one on his car. There was supposed to be wire clip and we should put screwdriver down the side of the glass and wiggle it to unclip it. We couldn't get it to come apart. We pulled it apart and there wasn't a clip. It had a plastic swivel with the glass attached but no wire. There was also another mirror glued onto old mirror where a previous owner had put a replacement on.
