John will check it out later this week unless the problem re-occurs first.
I should have been more specific, the gearchange only became stiff when hot after a decent run, it would return to normal when cold and stay that way until the next long journey although it did gradually get worse - I.e. would start to get stiff after progressively shorter runs.
