I'm REALLY glad I decided to do it (I just need to borrow a locking kit from some kind and generous person...hint, hint).

When i was cabbing my (then) gaffer used to come out with things like that. He'd wait for them to let go then show us the bent valves he'd replaced, not mention shattered brake discs, (honestly).

Well, I've had the car for 12 months...with no history. So I have no idea when it was last done.

Found a few other problems during the stripdown...leacking rockers gaskets atc.

Rocker Gaskets aint that bad to do. I did mine a few weeks ago and was suprised how easyish they were.
