    And have I missed Personal Computer? (I only see laptops and netbook in the list).
    There's love in this world for everyone. Every rascal and son of a gun.
    It's for the many and not the few. Be sure it's out there looking for you.
    In every town, in every state. In every house and every gate.
    Wth every precious smile you make. And every act of kindness.

    You'll need to define 'gadget' more closely, otherwise you may need to include
    • microwave oven
    • washing machine
    • tumble drier
    • dishwasher
    • toasted-sandwiches maker
    • fan heater (portable)
    • electric drill (portable or mains)
    • electric screwdriver
    • vacuum cleaner (small, battery-powered)
    • etc, etc...
    And what about
    • pen-knife with attachment for getting stones out of horses' hooves?

    Thanks for these folks,

    I will take some of these on board. Can't put them all in due to spacce.

    We debated 'appliances' in - but we know most people have things like washing machines and fridges so didnt want to clutter it up

    Thanks for your time above.

    Knife, fork, spoon and mug
    My very sincere apologies for those hoping to request off-board assistance but I am now so inundated with requests that in order to do justice to those "already in the system" I am no longer accepting PM's and am unlikely to do so for the foreseeable future (August 2016). :(

    For those seeking more detailed advice and guidance regarding small claims cases arising from private parking issues I recommend that you visit the Private Parking forum on PePiPoo.com
