Talking Lend me your spark plug spanner & feeler guages?

Anyone here in or near the Worcestershire area that I can borrow a Spark Plug Removal Tool & a guage to measure the gap when I install the new plugs?

Thank you!

Plug spanner and feeler gauges in english I take it you mean

Generally plugs come already gapped (although it's comforting to. Check). The plug spanner should be in the bike toolkit.

I used the one in the bike tool kit. Not best quality, but does what it says on the tin. Fits perfectly.

That's interesting. In American English, we have box end wrenches, open end wrenches and socket wrenches for the basics.
Are there varieties of names for spanners? Must be. If you need a 15mm deepwell socket spanner, but all you can ask for is a 15mm spanner, no telling what your helper would hand you...
