Hi W:.
As you may be aware, I've managed to source a hydraulics set up off the bay, the only problem being that it is in Dunmow, Essex (B), and i'm near Croyde, North Devon (A).

Does anyone happen to be heading up in my general direction from around Essex? (its a bit of a long shot, I know!), perhaps we could play a big game of pass the parcel (just without any unwrapping going on??) LOL:

I'm more than happy to cover fuel cost's / beer expenses (with in reason, if any ones driving a 2.8L petrol please don't bother replying, it will work out more expensive than a courier! )

(I hoped that picture might of persuaded you!)

Maybe if someone from Essex or Cambridge could take it to Reading, then someone from Reading to Bristol etc, then I can collect from there (you get the idea).

Otherwise I may have to make the 5 and a half hour trip all by myself. :GL

Your help really is appreciated. Thanks
Jak

alrite mate got your PM,

The problem is, if i collected them, you'd never get them. they'd end up fitted to my van instead Rasp:

How soon do you need them?

Have you looked into what it would cost to use a carrier like DHL. I use them all the time and most parcels are about £10 - £15.

Cheaper than giving someone petrol money??

Ha Ha, Cheers Tom, but I think I may of sorted this. A nice fella on VZi happens to be travelling from Cambridge to Somerset tonight with an empty van. Just trying to get through to the seller now. Thanks for the offer though, if it falls through i'll let you know.

Hi mate, Yep, tried getting a few quotes but the kit weighs a tonne. With 6 leisure batteries etc. One batteries heavy enough but 6.

Hopefully this is sorted. T:

Wohoo, I think I have this sorted, I thought it would take weeks to organise this. But it looks as though I'm getting the kit tomorrow. Thanks for looking. T:

Hey Jak, I'm coming down your way tonight... from Poole, so could have done a Somerset to Braunton leg... not sure I've got enough space left in the van though... if you run into trouble let me know!

Hi mate, Thanks for the offer, although i'm not sure what time the guys going to arrive in Somerset tonight, he's staying all weekend, so i'll head up there tomorrow and pick it up.
Thanks again.
