Surley the M37 will tow it? I know a WC51 will tow them and limber.

I would of happily done it but I had already committed to work all day and can't get out of it with out upsetting other people(the customer and the tiler who is booked for Monday)..Hence the plea as I have asked everybody I know and they are working or have family commitments.

Yeah know the problem. A few years back the Garrison asked me if I could move a gun from Tilbury to Greenwhich for a RA Band concert including the 1812 Oveture,. So I went into the office at work and asked if I could change shifts to move a gun. John the allocator said yeah , lets have a look. Then we strted checking. At this point his secratary Lisa busrt out laughing. We both looked at her , she said you come in asking can you have time off to move guns. Anyone else we'd be phoning the Police, you we just expect it.
