Sort of like a South of the border run into Mexico, I don't know the street price of Black Pudding down here in birmingham!

Seriously though...I've heard very good things about Stornoway black pudding so it can replace the usual mints in the door pocket for the trip home!

Not seen that before, thanks, looks a good idea, not sure I'm going to be able to complete all the sign up procedure in time, but worth it for the future either way.

Watch your insurance with that, mine has that sort of thing as an exclusion.

Seems every parcel I have delivered at the moment is by some chap in his own car who might be withholding his "side job" from his insurers, but no - I wouldn't risk it in my own car.

But for this trip, I'm in a hire van anyway so I dont "think" there would be any issue with me carrying something extra up/back.

Liftshare makes me think of Rutger Hauer types! But I'll give it a go!
