Is anyone travelling in the near future from Perth (Scotland) to The TRNC, who would be



prepared to bring a small lightweight parcel to the TRNC.? The contents are anti allergenic



duvet covers for a young Turkish fellow who is unwell. If YOU can help please contact me on



or off board. Thank you.

Breezyboy,



The arrangement was that Greg had kindly offered to bring them back to the TRNC for me, but

Ebay messed it up. and they only turned up in Perth yesterday. Sods law!



I have no doubt some other kind member will oblige.



wyn



ps. If I had bought a pint, I would drunk it myself, not waste it on him!!

Some idea of the weight might help someone decide... can you ask the current holders to put them on the scales and then tell us so that whoever is coming over can caluclate their baggage weight... just a thought...

Please can we keep this at the top until some kind person is found to help.

Nights are getting colder and these covers are needed for this little boys bed.

Wyn was so kind to help in the first place as was Greg who kept in close contact with me.

Hi all,

Many thanks for all the help you are giving John and Teresa, I really appreciate it, it was just such bad luck that it didn't arrive before I left Perth on Saturday morning.

Well done Wacky Jim, Mr Vince looks a fav bet as he will be back on 9th, thanks Vince.

Wacky when are you coming out so that we can have a pint

Hi Greg



I have sent an E mail to Vince asking for a forwarding address so hopefully he gets in touch.



Not sure when we will be back over..I was hoping early December but as I am over the top with work its looking more likely as if it will be into the new year before we can "escape"



Don't worry though I won't forget that offer of a beer or maybe even 2!!!!!!!



Regards



Jim.

If anyone gets really stuck with this sort of problem - items can be delivered to and collected from me at Stansted, cos that where I live and I am sure that many of you fly from Stansted. Feel free to email me if you need any help
