Rear Hub eats Bearings and itself

Hello
Hope you guys can help. I while ago when i had a puncture fixed in portugal they refitted but missed the cush drive spacer.

The bike kept eating wheel bearings until i finally realized what was missed a few 1000 miles later....

The bearings in the hub on changing pretty much fell into the hub, so a second hand wheel, new cush hub ( if thats the name) new spacers and axle purchased... no more wheel bearing issues...... until

upon changing a tyre in the UK, the hub bearing has now the same issue again, maybe 6000 miles after all the work done... cush hub looks a little worn too.

althoughg bearings seem fine..
cheers

dave
