I'll be working sat AM till 1, so I might not get there till sat PM :( but on the other hand I might get the day off, I'll let you know nearer the date. Also I might pop down by myself this time, less weight in the truck so I might not get so stuck aha :P

But before I come, I really must get rid of that centre box so I dont rip it off again :roll:
