I'm also more than happy to look after forward shipping it to Mark.

I don't know if this is more appealing to you AJ but I'll be atttending a show at Catton Hall Country Park, Nr. Lichfield (just north of Birmingham, right?) this weekend from midday Friday 1st Aug until Sunday 3rd Aug.
Alternatively, I'm in S. Wales at Margam Park Nr. Port Talbot from Friday 15th Aug to sunday 17th Aug.

I'll have the family in tow so my flexibility will be somewhat limited both weekends, I just want to give you some (potentially) more convenient options for passing it on.
