Mercifully, out of the province for the last ten days!
I called a few moving companies, including a VERY nice man in ...Ahoghill...(!). Apparently, many of our Norniron movers are blase about workshop gear, including 400lb table saws! Several of them offered to come up and assess the load before quoting! Not one of them turned a hair when I 'pushed the envelope' by including a half tonne lathe! One summed it up by saying: " we just think of it as an odd shaped grand piano..same weight!". I am gratified and relieved. No bookings yet, as dates are dependent on legalistas getting paperwork sorted, but I'm hoping for end September/mid October. Also transplanting 94 year old MIL to Alnwick and just finalised her sheltered accommodation ( part of reason we're over here). Thanks for asking Noel - will keep you infirmed.
