Always thought of the old cancer sticks whenever his name came up.

Was he 'cancer man' form the X-Files?.

Ronny may be referring to the Woodbine cigarette company. Of course, their popularity may have been before your time, what with you being so young.    They were/are unfiltered tips so when you took a drag, you sucked flames through the tobacco. 

i try to avoid Ebay if i possibly can. 

Get TB to do it for you. He is a big fan. Loves the place.

John Woodvine actor 96 , a good innings.

I needed to google him because his name is not familiar to me, but as soon as I saw his face I recognised him.

Ticked off a few jobs on the ML and TPC.

ML now has a working steering rack gaiter, yes the genuine one cost me £58 but it actually fits. Nipped up the CV boot clip that I had replaced for the MoT as there was a bit of movement on it still whilst I had the wheel off. Next was replacing a side repeater on the passenger door mirror as a chat with one of the many overgrown hedges that line the A roads around here had cracked it. One screw so easy enough, but took an hour to get the mirror glass back on securely  Final job for it was swapping the defective disc changer with a functioning one.

TPC had the hardware fitted for the rear side window blinds, thanks to next door for the loan of his rivnut tool. Also fitted the correct door frame trims. These came via Hungary thanks to a Polish seller who doesn't believe in postage. A colleague who commited from Budapest very kindly offered to have them delivered to hers and then brought them over as hand luggage Just need the door cards to arrive and that will be another upgrade done.

You saying that reminds me that i still have a new after market  off side rear light cluster for my Vectra C hatch in the garage loft. I reversed into a hidden post last year breaking it so got it from Ebay. Never did fit properly, even with a fair amount of fettling, (opening up the fixing holes really) so in the end i got a good used genuine one which went straight on. If anyone wants it, or you know anyone who does, it's going for free.

Stick it on Ebay, Ronny.

With pensions being so piss poor in the UK every little helps.

And in your particular case AA, I suspect it was Norton.  Best get rid of that junk IMHO.  I just tried going into a Homehub via its IP on a W11 PC here, no issue.

Oh dear.  You know some variants of Windows 10 remains supported for another few years?  Saves buying new gear, and W11 is generally a useless, buggy piece of crap....   ....to the point I use a Mac day to day at home
