Aha, excellent. Thanks chaps. @martinb, does 4pm ish qualify as in the day? I'm assuming you mean office hours.
My own stupid fault. I paid Chiltern Bike Barn £5 to remove this (6 speed) f/wheel from a wheel to put on another wheel, then completely ignored a friend's advice to take the opportunity to service the hub because I was too eager to put it on and too scared to attempt a hub service myself. And lo! after putting it on the bike I discovered there is play in it. So I could spend another £5, which means I might as well have bought the tool in the first place, a fact that annoys me as a. I've been stupid and b. it would be a waste as it would sit in the tool box never to be used again.

Re:
Have you ridden it ? If not you could spin it off with a pair of long nosed pliers with an end in each of the inner slots.
The outer groove will open up the freewheel and release dozens of small bearings onto the floor.
I did look again in the tool box, and I'm sorry to say I can't see that remover. Maybe Ron in GX can help.
