Nick,

I made that comment about my hoard of castors, pound for pound I will get 
more in scrap than what I sell them for.

You were by no means the only one Martin and your castors, being a current 
production item, are hardly a worry. But some 'unfashionable' engines and 
caches of spares could be.
Interesting to note that DWE voices similar concerns in the current 'Engine 
Torque'.
