Thats another fine mess you've got us in to

So, washed the bike and packed it up in a soft bag ready for Majorca :)

Without thinking (I'm good at that) I unscrewed the rear derailleur (Ultegra 6800) in order to protect it from dropping during transit. Good move hopefully. But I remember last time I did this I couldn't get it back on because it was under tension both from the B tension spring thingy and because of the cable.
Top tips please for how to screw/re-assemble. I'm sure there is a easy way. I really don't want to have to undo the cable and re-index if I can help it.... probably more problems!
Thanks
Belt up, we're going for a ride

I don't know Barry, but if you haven't managed to reattach it by Friday, I'll give you a hand when we arrive!
