AR08 Transport arrangements update.
 
It was our (the apes) intention to borrow a minibus from a friend to lug all our (TVSF + Soho Massive) kit. This is still a possibility but there are issues.

The minibus in question is normally off the road. It doesn't get used enough to warrant a years insurance. Instead it gets insured on a day by day basis as and when required. This means that if we wanted to use it, it would cost £25 a day to insure.

We will be travelling down on a Friday and coming home on the Monday. That's 4 days which equates to £100. Then there is the cost of the diesel. I am quite sure this is far cheaper than hiring a bus for that period of time.

What I need to find out is if this is viable. A poll then to decide. Who would use the minibus to transport their kit back and fore to the AR? The more that use it, the cheaper it gets.

A poll then. If a minibus was available to use and was cheap enough, would you use it:?:

I'll be up for it if it gets sub-?10. As I'm currently the only yes it's currently ?100, which is a little steep...

I'd be up for it for sure and now that means the burden for me and The Bear is 50 notes each :lol:

Judging from the number of peeps who said yes to your previous offer tho Si i'm sure you'll soon be inundated and we'll end up paying a few quid each and that'll cover the diesel too :D

I'm up for it. So that's 33 notes each pluss diesel. Does the offer extend to people too?

Well that's two that have said yes but not voted. :roll: I reckon we are down to £25 each plus fuel. So a good start.

Darren, I see no reason why we can't take passengers as well. Nathan has already baggsied one of the front seats mind. :lol:

The truth of the matter is we wont be able to confirm if this is going to work until quite close to the time.
