Need to get some wood from B&Q tomorrow.

it probably will be about 6 foot long.


I don't want it "in" the car - it may just fit diagonally - but don't want it rubbing up against the leather with those rough splintery edges




Was thinking about having it sticking up through the sun roof - with someone in the back with it making sure it doesn't move about?

And of course, driving incredibly carefully.



How naughty is this?

Now I know why they brought out the Sportcross ...

The words, erm....


Roof and


erm


Rack


Spring to mind.

don't want a roof rack Gord - this is a one off.

Matt,

Let me know your route and time. I wanna make sure I'm not driving behind you.

Don't drive straight into your garage with it Matt!

I know I'm going to get flamed for this but I've put length in the car through the hatch. I took some sellotape with me and used an old blanket wrapped around it.

I thought matt would have had the intelligence to take a saw with him.. he can cut the wood in half.. hey presto!

And then he can get home wth 2 three feet pieces of wood, his missus goes nuts 'cos she needed one six foot piece of wood, and she uses the saw on him (a la John Bobbit most likely)

[i]Don't B & Q deliver I know Wickes do [/i]

they do deliver Chris - but its £20 on a £3 piece of wood!


relaxe guys - didn't do it in the end.

managed to squirm out of it

I know that u havnt done it but..............apart from getting a fair chance of being pulled over by pc plod for the sunroof thing , i would just put it thru the ski hatch and as Geoff says wrap a blanket around the bit that goes thru into the cabin.
