A big favour for the weekender.... Please

We have the opportunity to borrow a large inflatable Gazebo from Ducati UK for our weekender in May 2018

The problem is getting it to The Sharnbrook Hotel in Bedfordshire for the early Bank Holiday weekend.
The Gazebo will be in Towcester, I understand.

I am told it will go in an average estate car.

We can store it at the hotel during the week before and after the weekender.

Is there anyone with the means, who would be kind enough to help out with the transport of this? Please.

Obviously it needs to go back to Towcester too. So possibly one to deliver and one to return if no one can do both ways.

Thanks in advance... I know it's a big ask...

Gazebo and arch will go in a small hatchback (Renault Clio) with the back seats down

Cheers Rob....and so any members with a Renault Clio?..

Stirling, stalwart member Grumpy has jumped in, and can collect and return the equipment kindly loaned from Ducati UK.

Thank you Grumpy.

Grumps is already doing a load of work for the weekender, and I will still be glad to hear from anyone with a Renault Clio who can ease the stain for him, as it were.

Cheers. You're a great crowd... Looking forward to a Mega-Weekender next year.

Great stuff Capo. Thank you.
Shout if you need any help with transporting those.

But I have to ask, what is the Toblerone?

Its a 3ft long triangular edifice like a giant toblerone with the UKMOC logo on two sides. It has been around a while.

Grumpy will pick them up next time he is over here.

I will be travelling down the M1 avec la remorque. It's only a minor diversion for me to collect the said article & transport to the hotel.

That's great BRD, as you are travelling with trop de roues.

Ducati UK are only open on week days, so the return might be tricky for you unless you are staying till Tuesday.

I'll put you and Grumpy in touch via PM... and Thanks.

I have an estate car and I'll be glad to help if I can. One trip or two according to my work schedule around the time.

It looks like I may only be able to manage Friday & Saturday nights so returning the gazebo would be a problem. Sorry!
