South East London, Lewisham-ish BijouVenus bijou dot venus at gmail dot com Thursday Monday Looking for a lift for me, or just my luggage

Could also buddy up for larger vehicle hire

London-ish (any train station that gets us better connections back) User:Leymoo & Shannon Thursday Monday Thursday we can train the whole way but Monday is difficult. One of us needs to head to near Watford and the other to Gatwick Airport. We mainly need a lift to a train station with a more frequent direct service to London on the Monday (ideally one that stops at Reading).

We can lend power, networking or other cables to your camp in return & also contribute to petrol (let us know which you'd prefer). If you need lots of cables then we'd also need a lift there depending on weight.

London (East) SamValiant Monday to Thursday Monday to Wednesday Looking for space for me or just my kit. Would like to arrive early and/or leave late so that I can help with build/derig
London (East, Abbey Wood) Galia Thursday morning Will probably have 2 medium to large pieces of luggage. I can take public transport to somewhere more convenient if needed.

Kralj Karlo Thursday Sunday I'm looking for two vehicles to hang my hammock between during camp, so I don't need to bring a hammock stand. Even one vehicle is helpful, because then I only need half of the hammock stand.

(Note: These will need to be live-in vehicles as there's no camping in the car park)
