Hi all

I need to move my family into a new house - starting this weekend.
Needless to say the distance is not far - about 3 miles but the dismanatle carry and re-assemble effort is high!
Travel time is a issue - since it is dead time - and using family SUv is going to take 20 trips plus!

Option 1 : Rent VAN for day or 2 and do it myselfConcern : Need some extra hands to help lug
Any volunteers?? :wave: fingerscrossed

Option 2 : Use a company BUT they key conecern I have is teh scale of my reloading equipment and the "viewing" of it by peoples unknown
I could box and move all but the bench myself - including safes etc.

So should ANY forum member have in North London a business - drop me a PM

Well done on the F Class scores as well,

Tut tut! Confusing Australians with New Zealanders - oh the shame of it! :shock:

Mind you, I keep getting asked what part of South Africa I'm from - the last couple of times by South Africans! :G

Hope the move goes smoothly. fingerscrossed

I assume you're paying the standard 'Aussie' rate - a couple of slabs of beer! :lol:

Wash your mouth out! **** Absolutely vile stuff, why do you think it's exported!

When I was based in Queensland not even the Banana Benders (Queenslanders) would drink the stuff and they're not fussy!
