Circlips can be a pain but assuming you have ciclip pliers they should remove ok, what is the problem? is it stuck in the groove? or can you not hold it properly to release it.....picture might help us

try looking at this link as well, might help a bit
 
Thanks for the replys.
All sorted now.
Was trying everything on my own but then my eldest son helped open the circlip while i freed it gently with a knocking stick.
Fact 2 pair of hands better than one lol.
Cheers.
