Amiga 1200 disk drive/boot problem

[leema1290]

I've had my Amiga 1200 for years, and it no longer wants to load anything: I put a floppy disk into the drive, the drive doesn't notice, and continues the insert disk request. This is very annoying! I have been unable to play any of my Amiga games for about 7 years. I would really like to know what's wrong/if it is fixable/any UK places that fix Amigas

Thanks Motorollin, I can handle the compressed air, but would not want to hurt it by taking it to pieces myself!

It clicks when empty, whirrs for a few seconds when disk is inserted, then clicks again
