Good deal. Take heart in the fact that if it were Amtrak, it would be a 5 day train trip.
Low refrigerant would be possible. Do you still use R-12 over there or is plain British air cold enough?

R12 was used as a refrigerant here but was outlawed sometime in the 80's I believe, not really sure, but do remember a huge fuss around that time about R12 and aerosol propellants, and ozone holes ....
