  • Huuuuuuge favour to be asked

    Would there be any grapes who live in/near Bromsgrove in Worcestershire who could go and dismantle a greenhouse for me and store it for a couple of weeks?
    I would love to bid on a lovely wooden greenhouse on Ebay, but it would have to be collected before the 22nd February, and as you may know, I work abroad.
    I would obviously pay for your time and transport, and would also love you forever and bring you over some lovely wine and cheese when I came to collect it, in the first week of March.
    Many thanks in advance.
    Bob Leponge

    If we had a place to put it I would bully the OH into doing it, but severe shortage of storage space is a bigger problem than the distance (which is moderate by our standards)
    Flowers come in too many colours to see the world in black-and-white.

      Bob...ditto - we're in the middle of having the back wall knocked down and rebuilt, and the back courtyard is a building site. My OH would go loop the loop if i turned up with a shedload [or greenhouse load] of glass and more wood to store. I had to spend the day sawing up wood for our woodburner as we didn't have anywhere for it.

      Plus, the builders would probably skip it i left alone for more than 2 minutes...

      This time last year - different story.

          Thanks to those who replied. I knew it would be a bit of long shot.
          Why do these things never come round when I'm at home. Pah!!

                I can't help, too far away.

                Can you ask the seller to 'hold it' for you for a few weeks? Maybe for a few extra quid?

                  Its tied in to a house move, so I'm guessing not.
                  Have sent an email asking exactly that though.
                  Here's hoping, it is nice.
