That person would have to drive obviously, otherwise insurance would not cover them.

Alternately find someone near skittyhorpe who will give you a lift and use a train to get to them?

Failing that All I can suggest, is tapping your left breast and say "One to beam up"...

While it's true the insurance would not cover them, it would make it possible for them to get to Bath. Unless they find a ride, it's the only way I see they can get there. They just have to be careful.

I would be up for it... sadly I dont think the driver nor anyone else would be willing to hire a car for us... just too risky in most peoples eyes...

@Ryu

Good luck mate.

@Kronos

Go get 'pegged' :lol:

[odin]

Hm....never thought public transportation was that ####e in the UK. Long live privatisation eh? :roll:

[TheJackal]

One idea. Does the garage that's holding your mates car hostage supply a courtesy car?

Perhaps you could ask? Failing that ask them to get a move on and fix it by tommorow!? :hammer:

[edit me grammer go is not /edit]

@TheJackal

Thats an idea... I'll ask.

I wish I had a car. I'd drive you there just for something fun to do! Oh well... :-(

Hello

I`m the ex-driver from operation Bath Spa. My cars in for some serious stuff. Engine stuff. The garage is small and doesn`t do courtesy cars. Its going to be ready around midday Saturday. So for around the time the show starts. If we did go we`d be lucky to get there 10 minutes before the end. Very lucky!

I only found all this out today. A nice £293 bill when I`ve hardly done any Christmas shopping and then theres this show. Great timing or what!?

Oh yeah. I`ve only had my license since Febrary this year, so hire cars aren`t possible.

When I`ve payed the car and this bill off i`m getting a new car. New job first me thinks!

[Ryu]

So is there no one out there going by Skittyhorpe? or indeed down any motorway close to us, like even the M1 would do...

i think the only option, is to make this a sticky ##ALL AMIGA ORG MODERATORS...## and then have a big donate url, and every1 give's money, and ryu gets courier with insurance and has a jolly christmas  :-)

i'm serious though

[Nick]

Hey what about me? :-) Well maybe it doesn`t matter to me as much as Ryu purley because he`s put some effort into the preperation n stuff, and all I`ve done is prepare myself :-)

[Ryu]

COME ON, im getting desperate now.... Ive just checked coach prices, that is over £100 now!.... please please please please please someone help.

[Karlos]

How much is a coach to manchester friday evening?

-edit-

According to the national express journey planner, Skittyhorpe <-> Manchester is a no-can-do :-(

Thats pretty poor.

It could also get you in a bit of trouble if you get pulled over by the police and they work out the driver is not the one that hired the car. :-?

Wow, I had no idea british public transportation was that bad.

And I thought danish public transportation was bad...

Sincerely,

Wow, I had no idea british public transportation was that bad.

its worse than bad its a joke.

You should be covered by your own insurance if someone lends you a vehicle,when my last car sufered engine problems on the motorway and only just made it back home without dying i borrowed my mates ford transit van to drive around in . :-)
