Wow, thanks everyone

I guess I need to nail down a time then. If I asked for, say, Tuesday evening, would that work for anyone? Failing that, looks like maybe Saturday morning might work for people?

Alas, it's still only a baby step in a freakishly long journey Next up I have to start moving "stuff" out of the way, and get my permits all lined up and stuff.

Anytime after about 6ish during the week is ok for me. Saturday AM is good too.

Not sure. 4 guys (me, Canadian Man, two guys from Bow Valley) huffed it off the truck and then grunted and swore it all the way into the house and down the stairs and around a couple corners... So I reckon maybe 400lbs? Complete WAG on my part though.

Ok so I guess Tuesday night is a go, pending one thing though - let me see if I can arrange for the suction cup things on Monday. Will post back. Also I guess I need to PM everyone my address and phone number.

Thanks to all who've offered. You have no idea how much I appreciate this! Thanks!
