Just an idea
I like the community spirit of our forum and the generosity of nature, one member to another. In the years I have been on here I have been on the receiving end of helpful advice and tips many times, and I hope, have given a little back too.
So here's my idea: Every once in a while I read post from members having problems with their car that they are struggling to fix because of a health problem of some sort (often short term, often sudden). If it happened to a member down the road form me I'd be happy to pop along and do the repair or fit the part. So how about we set up a register of members who are 1, handy with the spanners and 2, willing, where possible, to help out someone who finds themselves stuck with a repair because of a health problem? Just an idea. |

Hi Jonathan. I think that is a lovely idea, both from the point of helping members out, and especially if they are ill, either long term or short term.

I'd be up for this - I can cover the basics and willing to follow instructions for anything more technical

A great idea especially for members like me being 84 and find it very difficult to carry out any manual tasks
