cheers for the prompt response, i do have a HD drive but i am pretty sure it 
is a fault with the floppy drive.  The guy at Audio Engineering in 
Manchester said it could be that the springs in the drive are out of line 
(!!??) whatever that means, he said it may cost \ufffd100-\ufffd150 to fix, is this 
right?

Cheers again

Anth
