right-ho chaps it's time for another BONKERS roadtrip - looks like this will be a 2 dayer -sometime in next weeks tuesday-thursday window north wales - chester - wrexham - stoke - notts - colchester - southampton - oxford - north wales (^^ as a MINIMUM  ) possibility of bristol, central london, birmingham - please ask HEAVILY laden on weight from nor-wales to colchester, but plenty of room for bulk - not too bad on weight on the way back will do my best to accomodate most things - especially if you can meet me en route, but please ask - vehicle of choice will be lwb movano - diesel $$$ is always nice, but it's also nice to help people - so don't be shy! - kfw ps - if I have summat of yours in the kevbarn which I have forgotten about - now's the time to remind me!! |

manch no probs - bristol is looking more likely, but if not then I'll be A-52 bound at some point, so stuff can rest in the kev barn
- oh and a large part of this trip is directly your fault dthp - so I know who to blame (if you know what I mean!)
prob best to at least post on this thread if you are pm'ing me, so nothing gets missed

If you're travelling from Bristol to the east along the M4 then there's a set of my wheels in A52 that could do with travelling to J14 M4. Can pay in diesel money, coffee and mum's home made sandwiches! If you're not (tbh looks unlikely thinking about your route) then they can stay there until i next take a car down to A52  |

du - yeah, no worries on a bonnet - that was exactly the sort of thing I was thinking this trip would be handy for moving
it'll be about 8.45 am for bonnet pickup at conwy though, if that's ok??

Hi Kev, Bruce informs me you are the nice chap dropping my rims off in Notts. Thanks for the help
Any chance you could pick up a roofrack from Edgbaston on your travels?
I could sort you out with some Paypal funding or something of course.
Drop me a PM either way

Hi Kev mate, would these tyres be on your travels at all? If so any chance you could snag em for me & abandon at A52 (or The Barn until ur next at A52)? Cheers dude, HC. |
