WBAC is the easiest and safest option, I used them to get rid of a van recently, yes you get less than retail but it worth it to not have to deal with pondlife and timewasters.

Phone call to the deal being done was about an hour and they couldn't have been more pleasant, maybe go for a no obligation quote ?

I mentioned yesterday that there was no fresh meat in Asda. Out with doggie this morning, I got the distinct impression that there were less ducks in the park this morning.
Any connection? 

I believe Romanians are partial to a swan,They ate the lot in an Irish town I stay in's public park.

It's all the corporate staff I really feel for though, at the first sniff of this pandemic they were directed to ( pretend to)  work from their couch at home, god help them it must be awful! 

Yeah, everyone working from home, wondering if they'll still have a job in a few months. Dead relaxing

These are NHS corporate,  gold plated Arron

NHS is pandemonium at the moment, front line staff like myself are trying their best but it's a frigging nightmare with different directions coming though by the hour. I guess this kind of event is unprecedented in recent times but we could have been better prepared

Who's going to hold them to account ?

Pretty much everything that comes out of Tory gobs is an absolute lie yet it is accepted and positively lapped up in some circles
