    🤣.

    Yep, the house is filled with dozens of them. Courtesy of the wife who can't keep off ebay looking for bargain designer bags with minor things like missing hinges. This one is Chanel. Worth loads a money she tells me. 🙄. And then it's me that has to fix it. 8🤣🤣.

    Must admit she does sometimes make a killing. Bought one bag for 20 quid, badly advertised and priced on...

    You didnt strike me the type that has a handbag but good for you if you do LOL!!!

    Well now. Curiouser and curiouser. Today, my dear wife of 42 years (who's counting)rang me from town to announce that the Y was refusing to even crank to return home - even though it has behaved faultlessly until now.

    I don't think it's retrospective. They don't make it obvious but that is my interpretation.

  • Jeremy MkIII06 May 2026

    Thought you might😊🤭!

    Thanks for the links; will ring them tomorrow and see what is available. Apparently its official title is 'adjustment knob'.

    As the title says.
    It's the plastic, knurled knob that adjusts the torque setting which has gone awol.

    Thanks.
