General Discussion

Saw this whilst surfing the net this morning and thought it was quite a good idea. Checked the nearest place to us that does it. Nearest was Bude and had a few white goods.

Wonder if it would catch on around here. I'm sure there's lots of good gear sitting in peoples garages,

lofts and sheds looking for a new home.

@flo, thanks.

Yes indeed, used the Exeter group several times in the past.

One word of warning (it happened to me): if your email address ever gets hacked, they will never let you back on again.
