Only kidding.
About the bra.

Fiance doesn't like the traditional food? Have you checked to make sure he isn't gay or French.
Have you seen the movie Green Card?
Wahaha wahhahah.

Talking to fiance just now...

Hmmm.... he does speak French actually. And was most fond of my bolognese and boef bourignon. Hmmm...

Neither of us have seen Green Card - but he was saying he'd been advised to. Guess we'll have to give it a try, when we get him over here.

Come on, you know you wanna experience those sexy silky pantyhose for yourself... along with the lacy bra...

When was that we were going to get to see a pic of you in your avatar?

Anyway, back to the plot - where in Scotland are you, and what do you need moved?

In Scotland you are looking at a place called Aberfoyle, about 30 miles NW of Glasgow.
We have most of the big stuff here in Cali now and it may not be cost effective to bring over the couches and the nice bed and all the bigger items.
They are nice but I'm not that attached to them.
Prices on the BIG mover sites all tend to be insane and it just wouldn't be worth it.
I can live without my vinyl and CD's.
I just wondered if there are any local cut price Glasgow based shippers.
The Internet threw up very little.
Maybe East Coast it and U Haul it back over...but the thought...

And Tracym you mentioned the word sexy and silky in the same line.

You'd better be careful reading BE then - you'll have seven heart attacks for sure!
