Scrounging a lift if possible
« on: August 01, 2018, 18:58 »
On either Saturday 11th August, Sunday 12th August, Monday 13th August, My Grandson has invited me to their's.
I can only get there by coach to Leeds.
So just a very very cheeky request to see if any of you might be travelling from anywhere around Sussex, Surrey area, toward, Doncaster, Wakefield, Leeds, York area,w ho might be able to fit one little'un in (I could arrange for my case to go seperate).     
I know its a long shot and a blooming cheek, and I'll pay the fuel.    But if you don't ask, then somebody a few weeks later says, I I could have dropped you off.
Please don't think me so out of order you will never speak to me again. I am ever so good and quite HONEST.
   regards  Mrs Bouquet

I hope you manage to get there Mrs B.

But please be careful. Getting into a car with a stranger can be risky  :ohmy:

Thanks guys,  It was just an idle thought !  I went to the station last night and bought a ticket to Victoria and then I shall get National Express for the rest of the journey.   I hope my Grandson, who extended the invite has told his Dad and Mum,  he is not 9 until September, and all are in Portugal at the moment.  :lol:  Mrs Bouquet

I needed a lift in a hurry eight years ago at short notice to get to Eastbourne and Aunt Sally helped me get in touch with a member who was a taxi driver in Portsmouth who met me from the hovercraft and took me down there and was much appreciated.  I can't remember his name now but I remember him fondly.
