Mornin, this may be a silly question, but I inherited 1 and a half tins of mapp gas with my hothead, which I never used as I went straight to bulk, so have no use for - does anyone know if it's safe/legal to send it to someone in the post?
i doubt it, there is a whole category of "fuel" that is NOT allowed to be posted.. i suspect mapp falls in the same list?..
???
That's what I thought :(
In that case, if there's anyone in the Hampshire area who fancies some Mapp gas for nothing, PM me then pop over for a cuppa!! ;D
LOL, don't need the gas but I'll pop over for a cuppa! ;D ;D ;D
I get my Mapp gas through the post, well I think it might be courier but similar principles. But I'm sure you'll get a taker or see if you can demo somewhere and use it up that way?

Using RoyalFail is a nono , but some couriers will happily carry firearms/drugs/illegal immigrants etc etc, just ring round.
I'll take the gas if it's still up for grabbs.?............ and as an open invite to all . I have enough room for half the forum and free parking...the coffee is pretty good too can even be pursuaded to lay on some bacon sarnies. Infact what a damn fine idea great to share tips and ideas put faces to names, on a serious note is anyone interested in a monthly meet perhaps ?. I'm based in Waterloovillle,Hampshire, HollergrafiK and Hotglass28 have already been over so they can tell you what it's like (be kind please, lol) could even have an hour or so demos or sumthing ? Just and idea.
I'll shut up now
Carl - exits stage right. ;D

LOL, yes it did!
I'm not far away - Helen, Haze - fancy a road trip? ;D We could pop over and terrorise Carl (just joking!)
Helen could drop the gas off and you could see the hawk on the way!
I'll meet you there too.
Brilliant Kay, I'll PM you this afternoon - mini road trip it is! ;D (you'd better warn Carl - LOL!)
Fantastic... the more the merrier.

:) didn't take
them long:)
those bacon sarnies sound damn good too.
Only just caught up with this Dependent when you get together I'd like to play too :)

;D oh ok then ;D ::)
I really REALLY wish I was closer. I have a real problem with studio space. There doesn't seem to be any round here and if I am going to sell beads I need to have not made them at home or it will contraive (not sure that's the right word but it ts a contra something) the terms of my lease. People have even asked my Mum if I would take commissions. It would be a good way of dipping my toe in. Ho hum. It's going to be at least another 5 years before I can move out of here any buy somewhere that's not a flat and by that point prices are going to be stupid again... :-\ Just jealous - in a nice way :)
