Tony Jones Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 At last we're completely self-contained! The one item we still had which would only work on mains was my rechargeable shaver. It would last a few days between charges, but then needed a mains hook-up or a shaver point somewhere. I've just had my new one delivered - a Philishave - from www.shavers.co.uk who have also supplied a 12v charger for it. Total cost £73, but worth it. Of course there may still be times when mains is useful, but never essential. Since we have a refillable "Gaslow" system, even the fridge is probably cheaper to run on gas then paying for a hook-up. The gas, which costs around £6-7 to fill from empty, will last a full week even with both of us having showers every day, and the leisure battery has proved it can serve us for at least 8 days without starting the engine. Free at last! Tony PS now all I need is an efficient rainwater collecting system to keep the tank filled up!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

libby Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Be even more independent, throw the shaver away and grow a beard. But most important of all, throw the mirror away as well. LB PS COLIN has beat me to it. Looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Jones Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 No, it makes me look older. Or, with turban, like Bin Laden! Anyway Liz doesn't approve - I had a beard once, way back in the 70's, and she didn't like it then either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

libby Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Why do what someone else says, grow a beard, its a natural process. AND, it adds to one's personality. LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
