I thought B & Q delivered free within a certain radius that must
include Chineham.

| They do, but for various reasons which I won't bore you with, we'd
(he'd) like to pick it up on a roof rack!

| Susi,
Don't know about B&Q, but Homebase will lend you a roofrack. If B&Q
don't currently offer this service, perhaps you could apply some market
force and persuade them to start!

726.4 | Car needed as well! | LARVAE::THAYER_S | Thomas spielt mit der Maus... | Fri Jan 28 1994 12:36 | 12 |

Offers of help and creative suggestions have been pouring in, but I'd
really just prefer to borrow a car for an hour.
I've had a couple of offers of roof racks, the problem is that my car's
an MX5 and won't take a roof rack!
So, can anyone (preferably living or working in Basingstoke) lend me a
car with a roofrack?

why not just take the roof down and stick the ladder out the back.

| 4 metre ladder??? I used that method to drive a 4 ft plant home from
the garden centre once and it was a bit tricky. Reasonably amusing
though in sunny weather.
I'll pass on .6, thanks!

726.8 | Solved - almost! | LARVAE::THAYER_S | Thomas spielt mit der Maus... | Fri Feb 04 1994 15:01 | 12 |
| Many many thanks to everyone who has offered to help!
I've had some very interesting offers, of cars, roof racks and even
ladders...! If I get a brown envelope over the next few weeks I reckon
I could make a lot of money writing a bestseller on 'Everything you ever
wanted to know about picking a ladder up and taking her home'!!
Anyway, I've now swapped cars, I've got a car with a roof rack and
we'll try and pick this ladder up tomorrow. Bet they've run out!
Thanks again - for the help and an amusing week!
