Mike,
I'm not aware of anyone in the NW with a softloader tbh. I borrowed one from Don when I mapped my barge. Been meaning to buy one at some stage but a slight lack of pennies is the issue at the moment :-(

Tingymagig does have one, albeit he's "darn sarf". Might be worth a PM or have you tried Don?

There's a T5D5 meet at Grantham on Sunday. If you can find someone who is going to the meet and has a softloader (and is willing to lend it - obviously) I could bring it back up for you on Sunday.

Mike,
If you get the map from Don he does an option for loaning the softloader against a returnable deposit (£155 iirc). And Don is very trust worthy so no worries about not getting your pennies back once you return the softloader.
