Many thanks!
 

The help and advice I was given was spot-on - just goes to show what a nice bunch DSC members are!

The wheel came out and went back exactly as described. I got round the rear caliper problem by tying a loop of twine to the pannier mounts.

Thanks again. Time to go and scrub in the new Bridgestone BT020:burn:

Now for the front wheel..................:lol:
