As a wire wheel virgin that is all great advice for which I thank you all. This is the first time I have tried to remove the wheels myself and I'm beginning to suspect that Jeff Capes is employed part time in the wheel tightening department of my local dealer.
When my big spanner comes I'll keep you advised of progress, meanwhile I'll have another bash with my trusty club hammer.
