With 14 hours of soaking in penetrating oil, tapping the key whilst turning and wiggling (and a little thought of KK lubing up his Julie :eek ), it all freed up this morning.
Problem now is because of panic buying (thanks Dave) the local petrol station is out of petrol :'( and I could not be bovvered to queue on the way to work. If I cannot get any on the way home, I'm syphoning it out of the Mrs' car :evil
Thanks for the advice. I was a tad concerned last night as it just suddenly stopped working rather than getting stiff, so I thought it was more than just an oil up needed. All locks well and truly lubed up now.
