As said .. work on the relationship with your dealer ... 

Not only do I get the Trade Club prices on trade club items, I automatically get 9% on all non-trade club items.

Yesterdays shopping alone I saved just over £35 .. so that one day more than paid for the card ! and I didn't but any oil this time.... need to use up some of the load I bought last visit !!

All these wonderful tools you now have, just don't forget Tufanega/Manista! (the one with polymer grains in)

You need to be able to properly clean your hands afterwards.

What! You mean I'll get my hand dirty doing this, not sure I can cope with that - I'm a computer geek 

I'll add something to clean my hands with to my shopping list.

Rubber goves to keep your hands clean, you can buy a box full for about a fiver I think. Always clean your tools after use for next time, and to keep them in good condition.
Good tools are worth their weight in gold...look after them.

Get yourself a box of latex gloves (£5 ish for 100). They don't last very long but you can feel what you are doing.

I also have some heavier duty gloves which can resist petrol/brake fluid/EP90 but aren't so good for feel.

It is astonishing how much warmer your hands are even in the latex gloves (which is nice at this time of year)

We use two and sometimes three trolley jacks at the same time, you can place one under each jacking point  either side to jack up even.
 A set of good ramps with solid wood battings leading up them are a good idea, especially on a sloping drive, bring the car level for draining the oil, but as mentioned, don't forget to chock the wheels

Tip from an A/C engineer, if something feels very tight to undo, never try to force it,
