    IDEA......Forum Courier Service??

    As a thought, I was wondering if we could/should set up a courier service for forum members??
    We do it on the 4wd club forum and it works quite well.
    Might help out those shipping rifles/powder etc around.
    Maybe set up a separate section for it??

    How it works on the 4wd forum is all you have to do is ask if anyone is travelling from A and going to B and if they could either pickup or take a certain item. Or put up that you are travelling from A to B and have room for a pickup/drop off.
    Offers of fuel vouchers or coinage obviously is usually appreciated for the trouble.

    Just an idea anyway.

    You got it Maca

    Here's the description of the operation off the 4wd club forum....
    "Want something shifted. Post in here. Chances are a member will be heading that way. Remember payment is optional but everyone loves a dozen or two".
