sounds like you need a few hoses, a pair of wheel bearings (or re grease and re adjust) and a brake rebuild. none of which are massive jobs you'll prob be needing a new wheel cylinder for the nearside brake recording little effort. not many of these parts are available for reasonable price off the shelf in telford, but best bet is probably van beeks. failing that mail order from gsf or a trip to gsf / kingfisher kustoms in brum. you might also find that somewhere like volkstop in penkridge or aircooled classics in bridgenorth has them in stock if you need them today.
