The message
from Tim Lamb contains these words:

I have decided to up my budget to £3000 but that is still very much the
bottom end of the market, particularly for a mini digger.

I would have offered my JCB 3D but you said distance costs:-)

Don't tempt me. IIRC you are somewhere like Shropshire. 150 @£3/mile is
10% of the increased budget gone. (Incidentally I don't understand the
difference between a 3C and a 3D).

Herts. Extending dipper and (this one) has the kit for a hydraulic
breaker. Very tired. It currently has a problem with the power shuttle
anyway and I am too busy to fix. Lots of abraded hoses!
