Hi

When do you need one and for how long?

I might be able to help, do you live in the WSM area?

Has Graham texted Chris back yet? (he had his phone turned of most of yesterday as he forgot his charger)

Sorry, you are correct I should have posted to say thanks but got carried away in organising getting the engine and forgot - I have no excuse. Please accept my apologies for not doing so and accept my belated thanks for the offers. I borrowed the one in Plymouth as John was just around the corner from me.

Thanks to both of you for the offers.

Should be OK, I will check tomorrow and PM you.

I also live in Worle so easy enough?

Can you collect, I might have the van so may be able to sort something out.

Hi Chris...I was told it was only for the weekend. We should be able to borrow it for the week, but if there is one available local for the week it might be easier than a trip up to Bristol to get one

Thanks Sandy, still waiting for confirmation if there is one in Worle for the week from Liam as you say it will be easier to get and return. . .
