Petrol Post Drivers or other easy fencing ideas?

Just tried to contact my usual casual labour lad to get some new fence posts put in. His other half informs me he fell in love with a Finnish lass & ran off to Finland !
It's wooden posts & wire. Don't want to replace the whole fence - just the rotten ones. It's on ground you can't drive to & I'm not as young as I was. Is it worth hiring a petrol driver or would I knacker myself more carrying it about ? Other ideas?

If you do a search on here you’ll probably find that you can knock them in quicker and more effectively with anything other than a petrol post driver!
