Parts getting problematic

Found I had a leaky radiator plus ancient hoses so on Monday the car went in to useful local shop Mike's Autos in Frome, UK. I'd previously managed to source radiator, black silicone hoses, thermostat and a new water pump with no problem. But Mike found that the a/c condenser and receiver/dryer are heading for trouble, and getting replacements has been hugely problematic - they are on their way from Norway, on a very slow and expensive boat apparently. Also wanted to replace the Sanden compressor, and these are like hen's teeth - in the end I settled for a Hella replacement. People say they have stuff, you give them money and all of a sudden it's on back order
All this is eating up about 10 days off road. And try getting a left-hand headlight wiper arm... Not quite sure how long I can keep this up so I hope nothing else breaks for a while
