Joel...Thanks very much for the kind thoughts and some inspiration at my difficult time. I think I am through the initial shock and will now get on with things a bit more calmly.

I was also given a lift this morning when I phoned the PO to ask if the spare gearbox he was keeping for me had any hydrolic stuff left on it and he asked me if he could buy the van back because he was missing it so much. He took be quite by surprise so I said maybe in the future. So, I am now back to proud owner status.

Thanks again Martin (snug VW owner)
