Had a call from Keith Shawcross, who lives on the Isle of Man (listening
Paul ?) who is after any information on a flat-twin Coventry Victor marine
engine and gearbox that he has and is hoping to put into his 24 ft boat.

I phoned Roland while Keith was on the other line, and we both think there
is a service depot of office on the Isle of Wight. Can anyone with any info
please post to let me know what is available please ?

No I wasn't!

Been over to your side of the water to collect a Crossley HD11, Petter 8hp S,
Lister N, Crossley 1075, Lister TL plus the last remaining Hornsby bits. 24
tons on the artic and 3.5 tons in the trailer behind the car! Hopefully this is
the last for a bit.

Unfortunately, having got it all home (up a 1 mile twisting single track road),
we are now moving house to the other side of the Island, so approx 90 tons of
engines, rollers and other junk have got to be shifted 18 miles. Still, there's
always the Autotruck with one bit at a time.

I would need planning permission for a scrapyard with that lot, and a
divorce lawyer
