FOG EXPRESS from Chester to Kent

Postby gregster on Wed Dec 09, 2009 10:34 am

Hiya foggers....

Bit of an unusual one here....

Need to fog express a caravan from Garyrange's place in Chester down in this kinda direction...

Chester is up the top end of wales near Liverpool...just wondering if we could relay it some of the way down towards the south east...or to the midlands if someone could hang onto it till Christmas, and I can pick it up then...(day after boxing day I am coming to Kinver nr Stourbridge)...

I know this is a big ask...but I really need this van to convert as the toilet facilities up the woods for the weekenders...

Please help if you can foggers, it will be greatly appreciated.... :wink: :wink: :wink:

I can help from Tuesday next week as I'm off work for a week.
If we can get it to Essex or Hertfordshire. Maybe South Bedfordshire (Luton area), I happy to make the final leg.
