Machine Mart - they are the best place to get tools. It was about £7 for the deep offset spanners, and £9 for set of normal spanners set.

wouldnt bother fucking on with a spanner
just buy a windy gun and jobs done
(you will now ask what a windy gun is)
its an air powered ratchet (hense windy) (also available in 240v or 12v)

that would just turn the whole shaft though wouldn't it?
idea of using a swan neck spanner over a socket is because the piston rod needs counterholding.
i got a set of 5 draper ones from a motor factors for around £7
