    Large item (set of 4 car wheels), but not urgent (up to 12 months or so,
    a bit like the Royal Mail).

    What says the Fat Controller?

    Getting them from Sheffield to Hulland Ward might be a good first step.

    I'm sure they could be Uralled or Pumaed down...

    You could? That would be splendid. I shall consider a bid...

    Indeed so.
    If they improve the handling of the Ural, I'd probably never get my
    hands on them though...

    Well, 4 extra wheels will slow it down to walking pace which is bound to
    make it handle easier.

    OTOH it would depend on me actually working in Worcester at the time you win
    the auction. I take it finishes fairly soon?

    Make it Gloucester instead (extra 20 mins on M5) and I'll get them to
    Cheltenham.

    Well, that's a name I've not seen since a certain waterway-themed dialup
    BBS back before the dawn of e-time.

    Anyway, Worcester's close enough for a trip out.

    Sheffield to Maidenhead may be possible. All you'd need from there is a
    wonder horse.

    I say no problem. I can the full distance, just let me know the details
    if you want me to do it.

    Well, if I "win" the auction, it looks like you've got the contract as
    long as you're not going out of your way :)

    Time to make a ludicrously low bid...

    Not at all. I'm in (or near) both places fairly regularly, so I'm quite
    happy to do it.

    Heh, if you spot anything else in the northern lands just shout. As I
    say, I can drop thing off down there easily enough.
