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....
Laters

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.

most normal vans have a noseweight fitted out and full of gear at 70/75kg
stripped out about 40/50kg if that
