I'm not sure whether I'd get the use to justify it, so could I borrow the trailer for a little while? I want to know whether I really would use it for shopping collection and for carting the gardening tools to and from the allotment. I know I want to, but will it just be good intentions?

If you have a small (52-54 ish) racing bike frame I'd take it, stick some veloce on it and make my wife a proper bike for the summer.

I'm thinking that's a long shot though - so thanks anyway.

Cheers, Simon

PMd you details... weekend/late night should be OK too but might need to let them know ETA in advance... let me know what's best for you and I will come to Croydon... if weekday I could probably get to Croydon by 6.

Sorry to hear that Ajay can't use it.

I'd still like to try it out for shopping expeditions.

When would be convenient for you over the weekend?

I don't think its a "suitable for kids that you value" type of trailer, but if it is, then you are welcome to a loan of it.
