as i was made redundant a month ago and as spds went belly up i was wondering if there would be a market in couring from the borders to the north of scotland,and vice a versa,anything considered as long as its no bigger than an afghan hound or shorter than a goldfish,at the moment i am trying to get this of the ground so feedback from members is very important, ie. is there enough birds being bought and sold at this time of year to make it workable this is early days but if i get good feedback then i will go ahead ,people know me as davy , north of scotland fed driver and convoyer of said fed, i allways do my best, yours in sport davy.

Perhaps you interrupted something exiting in the bedroom, shame on you.
Seriously though i think you have quite a few things in your favour and i wish you all the best, logistical have you have a starting location in the North were you have no dead miles, get a link up one day a week with one of the English couriers and you have won a watch.
