With slowly returning to normal, and going out again, I got this delivery today.
Guess the honeymoon could not last forever
In another postal related trick, Fil, who went to fetch the Rezin Rockit with his camper van, for the cost of diesel, was not impressed when I rounded up the cost and “overpaid” him.
So he sent me an envelope with the receipts and a £2.00 scratch card.

Out in the yard, he had this galvanised car transporter trailer, was twin axle, one got damaged, yours for £250.00 collected on Sheppey.

So there you have it, engine and gearbox.
Clearly needs a lot more........
