Fingers crossed, I think we're sorted!

The folk at the Museum finally got fed up with us over-staying on their moorings so we got ourselves towed round the corner to "Caggy's Boatyard". Ralph who runs the yard then pointed me in the direction of a local machine shop - so local that we've virtually walked past it en route to the shops for the last few days.
And what a great place it is: Aquatools of Tipton is a proper high quality toolmaker. Our little machining job sits beside a new press tool being engineered for the recently announced new Land Rover.But Peter the boss was incredibly helpful, happy to spend 20 minutes talking through the job and - best of all - will do it tomorrow morning! For what I think's a very reasonable price - under a hundred quid.
