Oh, that doesn't look too bad! I'm sure someone in Southampton has a
suitable machine.


Yes, it looks quite reasonable, considering. Providing someone very
carefully winds it onto another reael and back again, to minimise the
risk of shedding the coating, it will likely play pretty well.

If all else fails, I have a couple of reel-to-reels which might do the
job, but I'm up in Leicestershire.
