Ok so it's been a long process: actually I'm pretty glad that Jeff was able to offer his recommendation of Bill to take a look at this... reason is that it was so far gone that a normal commercial workshop would probably have been prohibitively expensive. It's taken Bill a while but he's taken this on as a bit of a 'personal' project and we're now at the stage where he's ready to re-install the boiler (see pic); quite frankly would probably have been throwing the machine out, otherwise. Cheers A
