Vanessa has thankfully found a place for one of the Midlands poundies with the RSPCA in Bristol. We can only guarantee his safety is transport can be found.
If anyone can help with this run Thursday, Friday or Saturday please let me know thanks in advance.
I know with the ever increasing price of petrol people may be put off helping as they feel cheeky asking for re inbursement! Please dont if a dogs life can be saved we are ALWAYS happy to reinburse any petrol expenses incurred

Would that be Strensham - just before J8? If so, that would be ok for me. Any Idea of time?

That sounds like a plan.......... but how will the fuel protest affect us? I will do from me to strensham services......... i can turn around then at the M50 exit and go back north. Lets hope there is fuel left for us.

I've been wondering about that Nick. I've only got about a quarter of a tank at the mo....will be going out tomorrow and try to fill up. Also - can you get to Strensham and back on one tank? I've got to check the mileage for my bit of the trip as well.........
Have you heard any details of the motorway 'drive slow' protests?

We filled up yesterday thank god and now have more petrol in an e reg volvo than the e reg volvo is worth!! The panic buying is mental but the way I look at it is we also have the dogs needing to go from Wolves to Yorks and at least now if they are overdue and due pts they wont be being pts cos we will move them full way if we have too.
Nick, Shellie, Janine if you three could cover it that would be invaluable to us could I leave you to have a banter between yourselves about it?? Also with the constant hike in Petrol Prices please ANYONE do not let a dog die because you can do the run but cant afford the petrol I know the cost can put some people off we will happily re inburse your petrol expenses to save a life. Maybe this needs mass emailing out as we arnt having much of a response to transports at the moment?

The dog is in the famous Wolverhampton Pound me dear!!
Right can someone work out the distance between where you drop off Nick at Strensham and where Janine would pick up at Michealwood because I have no idea. I have someone who is willing to pick up at Strensham on DP but need to know where she is heading to go down to Michealwood.
Shellie it would be silly for you to do some if Nick is willing to go right down to Strensham wouldnt it I pressume??

Hehehe....don't turn up without him!
It'll be me and OH at Strensham. We then go to Michaelwood to meet Janine. I'll PM my phone to you two but I guess we'll need to know Nick's pick up time to get the timing of the rest?
Edited: wait a min....have I lost the plot somewhere? Is the DP person def in on this?? Perhaps I'm redundant?? The pugs have addled my brain...help.

Nope sorry Shellie its me being geographically challenged yet again  I thought you would be going to.... strensham not from lol which meant it was silly for you to meet Nick anywhere if he was going to go to Strenshaw. Nick I will pm you and will meet you at the pound at 11 am or Dawn will not sure which yet as we need to take three out altogether. Im meant to be doing the run up to Alicia and Ray then them onto Yorkshire but Rodders has an operation on his eye Friday so if I cant leave him then Dawn will take over. |
