CJ Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 This really is one of my more obscure requests and could definitely be the longest shot request too! I have a friend of mine who lives in Soutyh Woodham Ferrers has discovered my illness and would like to come down and see me before I go back as we havent seen each other in a few years. Unfortunately, she is of the very skint variety and so i offered to buty her train tickets online and have her travel down tomorrow. Easy eh? Well, no. It seems that in order for her to collect the tickets she would need to take the CC along to the ticket machine to print and collect them - so thats out. She then said she would drive down but as she is directionally challenged, she would need a sat nav and yep, you got it, she doesn't have one of them or a smartfone either. So, my obscure request is: Does anyone live close by that can lend her a sat nav for this weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Just googled South Woodham Ferrers and was going to make a generous offer to bring her down. Looking at the mileage it would cost 8 grand in a taxi. Sorry. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letmeshowyou Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 by the way, you don't necessarily need the credit card to collect tickets. Last time work booked me train tickets I just needed the last 4 digits. Worth looking in to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
