Optimax lift ring
Cheeky perhaps, but does anyone in the Southampton area have a mercury Optimax lifting eye/ring attachment I could borrow for a few days?
Much appreciated.

Again, not in your area again but could lend you one if it helps, on the warwickshire/northamptonshire border if you are heading this way at all
