You need a bit of headroom above the door opening for the roll-up door - something I didn't have when I went to replace the up & over door on my garage.

I cannot stand horse racing! I mean, I can only really point out London, Wales & Scotland on the map!!

Absolutely! I had a look in my profile, then top corners of the site - wouldn't have thought of looking at the bottom of the page though

I know I have the full set in the box, but I think I may have a couple of the volumes as loose doubles I spotted the full set here: https://www.worldofbooks.com/en-ie/products/irish-railways-dvd-dvd-5060162452760?sku=DVDB004925AGEVG&gad_source=5&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_aH6w96xiwMVXZtQBh1ejimpEAQYAyABEgKWAfD_BwE -
