I need a price for a job in Glasgow please. It's about 100 miles around the Glasgow area but there are a lot of stops from 5 mins to 20 mins max. It could take over a period of 2 days but if I'm really lucky it won't and it'll be between the hours of 9am - 5pm. PM me if you want the full details. Not sure of the dates yet either but it won't be within the next 2 weeks possibly the week commencing 29th August.

Can't remember the last time I did a drugs run.

Good work if you can get it.

BTW Strange fares like this always make me reach for the movie Collateral, with Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx.

Check it out :wink:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Pleased to hear it. Don't be shy with the charge. Value yourself appropriately.

BTW The only way to negotiate the deal you want is by being prepared to walk away if the price is too high, or too low in your case.

I'm not entirely sure what you're on about :? I have a job for somebody to do and would like a quote for said job, now I'm not sure how you work but it's quite the norm where I'm from to ask 'how much will that be'

Toots when you get home use Bing maps and you can put all the destinations in for the run you have to do, and find free parking next to or near to the places you need to go to

Put all the destinations in then you can swap them over and find the shortest rout

Thanks Skip for the advice, I've already got the route and my satnav does all the parking stuff for me as well. I've driven around Glasgow a couple of times now and I just thought because there were so many stops this time it would be nice to be driven. Here's me thinking Edinburgh was difficult :lol:

I'm thinking I'd happily do the job for nothing. Well for an accommodation anyhow :lol:

I'm sure I wouldn't be stepping over the mark to suggest that the Skull and I would happily service Toots' needs.

:wink:

And Glasgow is famous for its curries. Like hot stuff Toots? :lol:
