I'm no expert (understatement to say the least) but presume this isn't going to be a 2 minute job jody? Particularly with the weather we are almost certainly going to get for the next month now you have started it!

Told ya.  Just remember the sense of ease when it comes to the rear and use it to offset the frustration!

Cheers Keith, the rear won't be coming off just yet!

Alex the weather wasn't the issue today.. Took the little one to a farm, so only time to clean stuff up and renew fixings etc.
How's yours?
