Going to collect Starlet from Barnstaple to Accrington.

 

Happy to collect stuff on way back up tomorrow evening.

[Uncle Jimmy]

Can anyone possibly collect an exhaust from Carnforth Lancs for me; pass it on to someone else and get within range of Gloucester? Beer tokens or model or similar plus any fuel money in return.

Cheers, Jimmy

[The Moog]

Moved to the right thread Nibblet 

[Uncle Jimmy]

Cheers man.

[Bucketeer]

I'll be going from deep dark South Surrey up to Lancashire on Friday, and then returning a week or so later if anyone needs anything picked up/delivered/whatevs.

The only condition is that it has to fit in/on a Citroen AX or a SAAB 900 floppytop.

[Bucketeer]

Can we use this thread for all Shitely requests and offers PLSKTHNX XX

[Stanky]

In the proper place - can anyone get a lawnmower from Leicester to a service station on the M6 on saturday, for Bucketeer to pick up and bring further south?

[D Spares & Tyres]

There will be an empty car trailer going from Ludlow to Didcot in the next few days. It has a winch

 

Happy to make a diversion if you line my palm with silver

[D Spares & Tyres]

Oh and another empty trailer heading to Holyhead on Friday

[bezzabsa]

keeping my eye out for an Automatic, and have been offered one from this very forum...Problem is I'm in Yam Yam land, and he's in Carrot Crunching territory (Ilfracombe) ..is there anyone that traverses the M5 on a regular basis that could possibly help in the next few weeks? Pies are a possibility, or even pictures of the Queen if so desired..I'm not far from J4 of the M5 if that helps..

 

Just asking as it appears Trains and Coaches seem to avoid Ilfra like the Plague unless its multiple changes and glacial travelling times!!

 

Cheers folks

 

***MOVED COS I FOUND RIGHT THREAD***

[phil_lihp]

I'm in Barnstaple - anything I can do to help?  The train comes almost to my doorstep and Ilfracombe's a 15 minute drive away.

 

PM me if you want, as I will probably forget to check this thread.

Edit: I think I probably know which car!

Looking to have 2x 14" steel wheels and tyres moved from danthecapriman in Waterlooville to me in Manchester.

 

Is anyone travelling that way, or shall I just get a courier?

If Dan is about on Saturday morning for me to pick-up, then I can get them from him to Birmingham.

I'll be visiting my parents in Emsworth.

I'm out Saturday, but someone will be home to hand the wheels over...

[Sloth in a bowl]

PM me an address with postcode and I'll be over between 10:00 and 10:30 tomorrow.

I've just sent Max a PM see if that's any good to him.

If so I'll let you know.

 

Thanks!

[Ghosty]

That could well be useful for further movements - worst case I could just run to Birminigham myself.

[bramz7]

Potentially got an ideal spares car in my sights, it's in Beckenham apparently.

 

Anyone with a flat bed able to help? I do have to win the eBay auction first of course...

[Ghosty]

Revised shitely: two 14" wheels from Sloth in a bowl's place to me. Can drive down myself if nobody can help, but all my ARBs are fucked so I'm trying not to drive too far if I can help it. 

Anyone headed up the M6 with space?

[Dave_Q]

Minor shitely / pick up and post request: can anyone please collect a smallish item (pushbike turbo trainer) from Milton Keynes, and either post it on or hang onto it till someone is coming this way?

 

Cheers.

Any progress on this?

 

I've a trailer, if you have a tow car. I'm not a million miles from Beckenham.

[keef]

Anyone able to transport 20 litres of fluid from Bingley, West Yorkshire to Kent or SE London please?

I can do a collection from MK, even if I did have to Google "pushbike turbo trainer"!

Thanks very much for the offer 6C, I missed out on the item though so you can stand down for now.

Only just found this thread. Didn't know it existed but like the idea.

However, for maximum effectiveness would it not be a good idea to give a general idea of to and from locations, so everyone knows whether they are suitably positioned to offer assistance.

I can't find Sloth in a Bowl's place on Google maps, I don't really believe that Ghostly lives in Royston Vasey and the M6 is a long road, up or down, so have no idea if I can help.

[catsinthewelder]

Ghosty is near Manchester and Sloths Bowl is more or less in Birmingham.

 

Another Shipley that could be on here is that Lord Sterling would like to get the Roffle Micra down to Worcestershire from Durham and has offered to Day insure and tax it.

D'oh, that would have helped wouldn't it? I did mention further up the thread that I was in Manchester though.

 

No matter as I have said wheels now anyway. I forgot I'd sarcastically changed my location - League of Gentlemen was filmed not far from where I live, on the eastern edge of Greater Manchester.
