Not sure at present, Sat mornings are a non-starter for me. I have to watch my back if it is an engine out job, it's a little fragile at the moment.
What time are you looking to kick-off in-case I can spare some time to do assist?

I'm looking at getting down there for about 9.30-10.
I've not taken an engine out for years so even a inteligent guide will be useful, especially later on when we've got stumpted.

Could always pop out for a pint of milk.
Depending when its out might need a bit of grunt to move it.

What is the plan on removing? Hoist available? Or a case of cutting the front off and dropping it onto the pallet and pushing the car back away from it? Plenty of ways to do it.

Specially welcome when we need to move it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No knowledge required, best way of learning, seeing what needs undoing and why.

That's good as the one I borrowed from work was a right pita to get in the back of the Landy, did my back in and nearly damaged the car last time. Unfortunately my trailer is not ready for the road as yet otherwise I could have dropped it in that.
