Telford to South West/Bristol/WSM

Hi all,

Looking to see about getting a small item (ish) from Preston to Bristol, Weston-Super-Mare

It's a small generator, around 15KGs and is about the size of a small suitcase/carry on's

An alternative would be perhaps to get it to Beanie as I'm due up to seem him at some point for some work

Appreciate the help

Iggy/Ieuan

You bought it then.

I have bought some mirrors but they are in Yorkshire, I have posted a request to see if someone can get them to Bristol or Cornwall if this don't work out maybe I can get them to the generator guy and they could come down with your genny. Dale

Nothing yet

Any chance we could get it to Beanie, if there's anybody planning to see him soon?

The addres for picking up is Garstang, Preston but could meet up at Forton services J33 M6 or I'm near Ent.
I am travelling to the eurotunnel on Friday 17th July with my caravan so could possibly meet up at services along the way. Also a member of avforums.com

Thanks all - Away to Majorca on the 18th, so wonâ€˜t be around in Bristol then

Mal, which Motorways will you be using to get to the Eurotunnel on the 17th? (I fly on the 18th from Bristol) - just seeing whatâ€˜s possible

@RLD, your option could work as Iâ€˜m sure thereâ€˜ll be a few from the South West going to the pot noodle event

Cheers Mal,

Depending on your times etc, I may be able to pop up to Birmingham, ideally Iâ€˜ll sort something out before - will keep you posted on things

Just about to pay for it as well now

Ok I'll be setting off from Preston around 2pm. I'll be on a tight schedule as tunnel booked and 930 mile drive to first stop, watching the Tour de France.

OK, looks like Ent can get it to the Camper van Jam near Telford (TF11 8LE) this weekend - Anybody around that area pick it up from him and either hold until I can pick-up or arrange for another member to come and get it? Iggy/Ieuan
