Official shitely Thread

[N19]

I had a thought earlier about ULEZ and the effect it will have on local shite and the fact that there may be some interesting things up for sale in the near future in London. I live on the outskirts, outside the ULEZ area, so if anyone needs a car collecting and storing for a bit, as long as it's road legal, I'd be happy to pick it up and keep it locally until it can be collected or transported further.

[somewhatfoolish]

Any shiters near Gloucester? The map thing is empty of markers nearby, maybe someone is thereabouts or passes through? For collection of stupid non-automotive purchase and onward shitely progress northwards or if they like wrapping things then it can be couriered.

[Dick Longbridge]

Anyone near Stroud, Gloucestershire? I have my eye on a petrol mower but the seller won't allow me to organise a courier. Anyone able to collect and/or move it vaguely nearer Cornwall/or package for a courier if I cover costs?

Snap(more or less), although my prospective purchase is much less sensible than a lawnmower.

[ruffgeezer]

Anyone near Rotherham?

There's a sale of an old motor factors on NCM at the moment and I'm looking to snag some lin bins.

[bangernomics]

Anyone able to help move four bare steel rims north from Billingshurst towards Manchester?

a bit of a feeler but im wondering are there any shitters local to where these rare fluorescent tubes are that are able to grab them for me and somehow get them to me, or hold onto them until I can figure out some way of getting them home?

not only are they rare bayonet capped tubes, but they are electricity board branded which makes them even rarer, so yeah id quite like to add them to the collection! however they are quite far away from my location!

(and I dont think they would fit in My car even it was road worthy sadly!)

Oh god, B22 capped tubes. Knowing where I work, there may very well be a couple of these fittings in some old forgotten rooms.

@Saabnut and @dome are up that way, not exactly local though.

[Saabnut]

About as local to me as London is to Bristol, the difference is it would take twice as long with the roads here.

Trouble is, there is not much or many people local to there...

I'm more than happy after collection from Winchester to go as far up as Oxford if someone can relay from me to FoD, say Peartree services? 

EDIT - I have spoken to the vendor and can confirm I am collecting on behalf of @Floatylight this coming Saturday (17th April) about half 3-4pm

SECOND EDIT - the vendor phoned me this morning and has re-arranged for next Monday afternoon. Floatylight is visiting friends near to me in the next few weeks so there is no real urgency to get it up to Staffs or FoD.

Bump! Anyone coming North able to help out either to FOD (Bucks) or Stafford..

[Crackers]

If I get a chance to come up to FOD in the next few weeks, I'm happy to transport. Not a guarantee, but if I do get time for it I'll give you a PM.

[N19]

In the next week I'll be doing London to just outside Oxford, and London to MK. Any use let me know 

[N19]

In a few weeks time, London > S Yorkshire in an empty van. 

A week after that I'll be doing London > Gisburn > Edinburgh > Aberdeenshire and return over several days in the Capri. 

Any use, let me know. 

[dozeydustman]

I have a shitely/man with van request for this Sunday if possible.

We’ve won a dining table & chairs on eBay; it’s not far away but it’s the tiniest bit too big to fit in either of our cars.

From Godalming, Surrey to Chichester.

[mitsisigma01]

Take the sofa cushions with you and sandwich them onto the roof with the table flipped over and ratchet strap through the windows, done it many a time 👍👍... Take the back roads not the A3 you'll be fine 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

[mitsisigma01]

If the front calipers on my truck weren't stuck on and the brake pads nearly down to the metal I'd do it for you 😕 

[High Jetter]

You gave the brown van back?

Yes. I was quite glad to give it back as it was thoroughly horrid.  We only hired it for one day then Mrs Dustman buys more furniture after it’s been returned 😐
 

We may be sorted now as it looks like the table dismantles meaning it’ll go in the Toyota

[Crackers]

Anyone need anything ferried between Portsmouth/Chichester/Worthing and the FoD this weekend? Happy to move stuff in either direction if I'm passing. 1x Focus worth of space available. 

[Cord Fourteener]

Anyone able to take me from Wrexham/Shropshire/ Cheshire to East Anglia, or drive a Mondeo from East Anglia to above area or Birmingham?

[omegod]

I'm just awaiting notification from a kind member in Bristol who is finishing fixing up a small mobility scooter, a so called easily transported "boot scooter", for my elderly in laws. Would anyone be able to kindly assist in it's transit in a North Westerley direction to anywhere approaching Merseyside ?   Happy to cover some fuel money and I make a mean cup of tea !

[Schaefft]

Do we know of any members living near Preston close to Manchester? Seller on FB marketplace has a set of headlights I could need for my Celsior but is a lazy c*nt and can't be bothered to stick them in a box🤦‍♂️

[mitsisigma01]

The Moog is Accrington way but I think there is others up there. Show us yer Celsior 👍
