Rear brake adjustment

Sanity check please - to adjust (push the shoes closer to the drum) then you rotate the adjustment wheel DOWN on both sides.

(Understand that there are various ways of describing this but, if stood under the van, looking out, then, effectively, you rotate each wheel downwards to tighten the shoes).

I now remember this as "Loosen up, tighten down".
