Via Coventry.

No wonder they went bust!

Seriously James, I hope someone can help you out here.

I was going to offer too as not working much next week. Maybe Green1 can pick up from Coventry and I don't mind picking them up from him in Essex and I can bring back to Ashford for you if that helps at all.

Post by: Green1 on December 29, 2014, 06:58:37 PM: Its only about 130 miles to Coventry that's often my average daily commute.
If some one closer steps in we can just pass them them down.

Sorry to hear of your predicament. I am in Coventry but wrong country.Green1 lived most of my life in Kent and never heard of it but the Ashford area has grown since.
Wish all good luck

The VFR forum had a board called "VifferMail" which did more or less exactly what we need here.
