5 April - sleep in Frankfort
6 & 7 April - sleep in Vanderbijlpark
8 & 9 April - sleep 20km north of Brits
10 April - sleep in Secunda
11 April - Home Sweet Home

Cheers

Hi Volks

I please need help to transport 35 blankets down to Cape Town.

Aircooled Fanatics have a Soup Day and Blanket drive on Sunday 22 May 2016 for the needy, and we were donated 35 blankets from a company in Roodepoort JHB.

If anybody is coming down to Cape Town, and has the space and inclination to assist, I would appreciate it as a personal favour, and it will be returned for sure one day. Alternatively, if anybody knows of a courier or transport company that could assist, it would be appreciated.

Regards and thanks
Muderick

Maybe we can donate a little cash to help having them sent down if no-one is able to help gratis?
I'll offer R50 towards courier fees

Timefreight has pretty good rates for pickup and deliver (thats what I have found anyway).

Would've like to help but it is just to short notice.

Will give R50 too.

Time Freight..... They lost my original barndoor bus parts manual together with 2 NOS camshafts for a 25 Hp beetle motor, and some other small parts. The value I claimed from them was R14k. After 6 months they got me all exited asking where to deliver my cheque. Needless to say I was a bit disappointed with the R500 they sent, with the letter claiming they didn't do anything wrong on their side.

I had to laugh at this, they lost two of our data projectors worth around R12k, lady handling our case said that its not their responsibility to keep goods safe :? Stopped using them from that point onwards. I think that we got like R2k back back from them :lol:

Hi Tony Z and Jdt1976

I just wanted to take the time to personally thank you for your offer to help pay for the Courier fees to get the blankets down to Cape Town.
God bless you for the gesture, and may your gratitude be rewarded abundantly.

I got a really food deal from the guys at Big Foot, and fees came in at 30% of their normal charge.
There was no way I could take your money after the good deal I got from Big Foot.

Thank you once again guys.

Anybody traveling from CT to Pta in the near future? I need a lift for 3 dropgates and 2 treasure chest doors. My normal courier is off his meds or something. I can drive down to CT and fetch them and drive back for less than he is charging.
The only substitute for cubic inches are more cubic inches.
