Title: Last chance - OOF courier from Bristol?
Post by: Diamond Black Geezer on 02 April 2015, 11:00:11
The good Mr Rob G has offered me a set of wheels, steelies, but new tyres. I'm after getting them anywhere nearer to me (Cleethorpes, N E Lincs) than where they are, currently, Bristol. Of course the standard OOF currency of beer money is available.  :y

Sadly what with one thing and another, several OOFers have been unable to pick them up for me, not their fault, these things happen. But if anyone can get them even a bit nearer, that cuts my 8 hour round trip to pick them up down significantly. I have a mate in Nottingham, also might be able to have them left in Coventry, would have to check.

It's getting near the MoT date, and I'm really needing these soon. Also they're clogging up RobG's place, and he wants them gone!  ::)

So - sorry to Rob, and please to everyone else.... Any chance? Thanks in advance  :)

Will your 'Turbo Weasel' run on veggie oil?  ::)  If so fill up at Costco or Makro and have a nice day out!  :y

Hmm, I am going to have to go to somewhere 15 miles or so from Rob, but the vehicle I'll be driving is unsuitable for a drive across Bristol in. This is why I've been unable to do it so far.
Perhaps, if beer money goes to Rob, he could get nearer to me, then I can easily get them to Oxford, thus to Jaime.

I have no problem doing it, just I know for a fact the vehicle I'm driving, ideally, I don't want to drive through Bristol in  :-\

If it is suitable to Rob, I'll pick them up in the morning (Friday) at around 10:30 and drive them up to you.  I'm heading to Hull, so if you can meet me somewhere?

You'd make a rubbish drug dealer  ;D

I'm off to bed now, so my offer is retracted.  Long drive tomorrow.  :'(

A public apology to Broomies Mate for not getting back sooner.


And you're right, I can't even get you some drugs by way of apology.


In all seriousness, humble, genuine apologies, I have been kicking myself for missing this chance.  :'(
