I guess there's only so much you can say about car related security issues.

I don't think I can see myself ever needing to cart multiple loads of chino cemento and arena blanca fina or whatever in the UK but never mind......... sorry Fred:o

I've got a brand new box of Cemento Rapida in my garage and a brand new trowel to repair a drain after the Spanish hooligans, drain specialists, ruined it. Much to my wife's annoyance, I've gone into the Manana syndrome.

Ah, the Mañana virus. Very contagious. I had a bad dose all summer, as the heat makes it worse. I have to get off my arse and tackle the weeds, as some of them are taller than I am.

It still is a useful thread, from what I can gather, it would be no good calling on W.linen when you need a load shifting

Bil would have no qualms about transporting building material.

FFFFiona would be a good bet, as she and her amazonian mates would probably shove you out of the way and do the loading in no time.:D

Except that I have a 4x4 and a trailer, however you can load it yourself as I have delicate hands;)

For which, of course, you need to maintain half-decent nails:( !!

Yeah, I have terrible problems like that. Prising open the rat traps and shovelling sh'it can play havoc with your beauty regime.
