Winner!
Hi there, 15 pounds is 2 weeks organic grain for all our poultry! Plus this is an old car, they don't make them for it - a big car parts firm actually wanted to give me a gas strut and then get me to film a review of it but even they couldn't find the right one for it. As for breakers yards, I really miss those take-your-own-spanner ones in the UK, here in France everything is removed, polished up and put on a shelf with a silly price tag. All the very best, Andy
