    Squeaky belt?

    might be belt or might be pulley squeeking, if it doesn't do it when pulling off especially bad hten it won't be belt slipping. Not an easy job in the valver engine bay by any means. Any motor factors will sell the belt

    grrrr! fecking handbrake...

    Jack it up and see if both wheels are holding, if not check that oen of the cables hasn't snapped. If they are both intact the mechanisms ont eh rear calipers for hte handbrakes are known for going, i can supply a working caliper if required. To adjust it remove the the centre section...
