Hi there
You are sometimes so lucky to be in a beautiful, unspoilt part of the world that still counts as "the mainland". So many businesses deliver free or for reasonable charge to the UK mainland, but things get silly when you ask them to quote to the isles.
I am building a house in Orkney and getting some things delivered is a problem :(- I need a friend in the Wick area with space in a garage or similar who would be prepared to accept deliveries. I would them come over for a day in my car and pick stuff up, as well as visiting your new homebase etc (Is it good???)
Anyone able to help??? Happy to pay a fair fee or bring you a bottle of Highland Park! Or deliver something over from Orkney.
:lol:
