Hi John,

I've been free-trading with Subhi via the list for well over a decade, so
not worried about that... The PE1950 might be a harder sell all right šŸ˜‚ In
any case, it'll need to be gone by the weekend, so it might be another
early morning trip to our not so local tip on Friday morning (ours is
closed Thursday/Friday, so it's a long trek around to the absolute other
end of Falkirk šŸ˜¢).

Sadly that's the last of our kit as everything is now up on aws.

If it falls through with Subhi I'll let you know.

Cheers,
Colin
