    Well, stone the crows, the Eunos back on ebay, i get a serious offer & I
    counter to a price i find acceptable. Chap rings up, any chance you can
    deliver it to Scotland, 2 miles away from Roslyn chapel to be precise. He'll
    pay fuel & my rail ticket..

    I have passed the road to Roslyn chapel about 20 times in the last year &
    not had time to nip in for a gander. I do like a bit of Templar folklore, so
    he's paid me for the car, paid my ticket & as luck would have it, the car is
    full of fuel. So the £45 fuel he pays me will get a few cans of stella on
    the way home :)

    I rather like the train journey from Edinburgh to Leeds, East coast
    mainline, it's nice. 1st class of course..

    Best name ever for an ebayer, too :)

    Vaughan Lewis, sounds like a rather well to do retired actor & he's about as
    porridge as I..

    Alls well that ends well..

    It's an adventure, i fucking love an adventure. Best bit is i have my eye on
    an R1 20 miles away :)

    If i can that all squared, that would be a fucking result.

    Well, as the chap's paid for it, technically it's his, so Nige will at best
    be driving it on TPO HAGM insurance, assuming his ins co allows that...

    As you say, what could possibly go wrong..?

    Is it an adventure or a 'journey' ?

  10. I'm not legally certain, but I'd assume not his until delivery, as only
    half the deal has been done.
    See above.

    <switches on Cnut mode>

    And of course the extra money he has paid you have mailed back to him
    via his bank in Nigeria?
