Dave barrie Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 as i was made redundant a month ago and as spds went belly up i was wondering if there would be a market in couring from the borders to the north of scotland,and vice a versa,anything considered as long as its no bigger than an afghan hound or shorter than a goldfish,at the moment i am trying to get this of the ground so feedback from members is very important, ie. is there enough birds being bought and sold at this time of year to make it workable this is early days but if i get good feedback then i will go ahead ,people know me as davy , north of scotland fed driver and convoyer of said fed, i allways do my best, yours in sport davy.

OLDYELLOW Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 Good luck in your new venture , try again in normal working hours you might get a better response
Guest Gareth Rankin Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 thanks for the phone no for uk couriers fifer, i phoned them and all i got was abuse saying you dont phone at this time of night pissed about pigeons,sorry davy.??Perhaps you interrupted something exiting in the bedroom, shame on you. Seriously though i think you have quite a few things in your favour and i wish you all the best, logistical have you have a starting location in the North were you have no dead miles, get a link up one day a week with one of the English couriers and you have won a watch.
andy Burgess Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 best of luck , theres certainly a gap in the market .
buster151 Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 wishing you all the best in your new venture

THE FIFER Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 often thought that a courier with a motor bike could do well, when its not so busy
