Based at Grovelands Estate at Exhall IIRC?

When I worked on aircraft we used many of their products. :thumbsup:
Of course it'll fit; you just need a bigger hammer.

Thanks Melisandre :thumbsup:

I already knew there was a railway buffer called an Oleo, it had a very distinctive shape so I thought the name came from that. I had no idea it was the name of the company that made it in Coventry! :clown:
