    And you claim to be a Yorkshireman Martin, to ‘fettle’ or ‘fettling’ is a very common northern expression for mending or fixing something. 😉

    It’s okay, Martin only understands the Queens English (the Hampshire dialect specifically), urban slang and regional terminology throws him all the time. 😉

    Thank you gentlemen. One has never come across such an expression before but will hereafter hold it in good stead should one encounter such phraseology in future. 8)

    Such quality stuff available in Lancashire these days for ‘fettling’ I’m surprised no-one has bid for these quality appliances. :rolls:

    The seller also has a whole raft of Zimmer frames for sale, something I will be watching more closely for a potential bargain. 😆
