| Urgent - Drop off needed south Manchester/M56 area Friday |
|
I'm bringing an Expo rack down to Manchester for onward delivery to Tanters in Ireland. Al Cope is taking it to Birmingham for shipping but we aren't able to meet during the couple of days I'm down. Is there anyone in the southern area around Manchester/Airport/M56 to M6 area that could hold the rack for a few days? I can drop off Friday 4.30-5.30 and Al will pick up next week.
I'm coming down Wed pm 10.30 ish and will be around Thursday as well, but I can't get away from work during the day and have to attend a 'social doo' on the Thursday night. However at a push I could deliver tea time Thursday.

Alex is coming down the M6 and into manchester. I live in Brum, and my office is in Sale, so for me to collect, anybody that can hang onto this somewhere along/around M56 area would be great.

Would like to help out, but unless the rack can be brought to/fetched from Buxton I'm a bit stuck unfortunately.

That could work - if you were able to hold the rack I could drop it off either place (bearing in mind that it is big and work would have to be happy with that!) I'll be leaving Manchester about 4.30 Friday so wherever suits best.
Thanks

Thanks for the offers guys. Nick would be best if you are still up for this - Al & BCB may have contacted you already about their ends.

Alex - can you arrange to drop of with Nick Thursday or Friday (if he's still OK with that), and I'll arrange to collect during next week.

Can I say many thanks to all for helping with this - esp Nick for acting as tyre/rack agent and Al and Rob for doing their pickup delivery bits. JKP's tyres are now awaiting at his pleasure (after he finished nights!)
