Rain stopped play yet again Timing Chain job

Hi folks,
I am about to give up doing this job
It's proving very difficult doing work under the car
on my drive, and a bit worrying to say the least.
I have not yet removed the sump but I have the timing
cover loose but it wont come off so I can see I will have
to get the car to a garage to work off a ramp...
The future is not looking good

Sumps dead easy to remove, get car up on couple of axle stands, undo engine mtgs, steering column, either use an engine support beam, or you could put a jack under front of crank, remove front frame bolts, frame will then drop enough to access & remove sump.
