Evening all.

After a rather rash bid on Ebay, I've won a Nitrous oxide bottle/solenoids etc. Unfortunately, I forgot to check the postage, and it turns out it is collection only. The items are in Salisbury, and I am in North Wales. I'm going to struggle to find a day to spare anytime soon to go down and pick them up, so I thought I would ask on here.

Is anyone passing Salisbury in the near future, heading north? I can easily get over to the M6, near Northwich, or Chester, or Wrexham or the A55 in North Wales? If you are making that journey, and fancy making a few quid/me covering the fuel costs for you, can you give me a shout?

Cheers
Andy

I'm in Salisbury and happy to pick up and arrange postage if that helps?

I do go up to visit my father in Chester but not that often - postage may be quicker than my eventual visit!

Doubt that it's of much use, but I'm in North Cotswolds (10 miles south of Stratford) and am heading up to Manchester on Saturday most likely, so if a relay is organised, I'm happy to do that leg!

Going to Stroud in Gloucestershire next week to collect some bits then back to Pontefract, Yorkshire if that's any good.

Hi Folks,

Thanks for the input. I've sent a few U2U's.

Using a proper courier/parcel service is looking like it is not going to be possible, as none that I have found will accept a compressed gas (the Nitrous bottle is full apparently). Unless someone knows one that will?

Cheers
Andy
