As Baldinio Chris says above - 3/4 August. I’m glad you’re making a return and I’m guessing like the majority of us, we’ve continually returned since...
I vaguely remember reading that the machines were dumped in the Firth of Forth! Although I don't remember if it was supposition or based on anything...
Also possibly the bearings you’re talking about, the delrin circular bands fore and aft on the piston, probably about a fiver and worth checking that...
