It does make one wonder how hard it can be to "find" the engine in question.....

The last I heard, "it may be in the loft".......Ha ha ha ha ...How did it get up there? Does it have Wiiings? (I'm reminded of the faulty towers sketch "pig in water tank")

IMO as he is so busy, why don't you commision SW to locate, pack and send the engine ?

That way it will be a job for him to do and it will get done ?

It must be a lot cheaper that getting a new engine ?

Is it just me or does it seem like there's more going on here than we're being told? Who honestly puts engine blocks "in the loft"? Seems a bit dodgy to me. Can we be sure that the block is even still "on site", because it seems nobody's even seen it for quite some time?

The loft is the storeroom; common knowledge.

Ashok/Tim just give him a ring to clear the air ?
