mav Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I have been to purchase some hard backed envelopes this morning, but can find nothing suitable. Nearest size is 9 by 12 or some such, that means the big sticker will need folding. I did not want to do this without your buy in first, as i do not know if they will be damaged or worse still unusable. Please let me know. We could arrange a central meet sometime soon, or if you are oultoning or silverstoneing (for the test days) perhaps we could meet up and distribute the stickers.

Meldrew Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Mav - Just a thought: could you roll them up and pop them in a tube? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav Posted June 4, 2004 Author Share Posted June 4, 2004 I do not have enough tubes, and suspect they will be more expensive again??? Any ideas? P.S. I'm paying for the distribution out of my pocket to ensure there is a donation to NTL 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boonie Hound Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 How about everybody buys a suitable tube and sends it to Mav who then fills it with sticker goodies and re-addresses it back? This could involve expense and far too much complication...another good reason I don't work as a courier....sorry just an idea... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I intend to be at the Silverstone test-day - so would prefer an unmolested sticker then. Folding is a definite no-no - you'll never get the crease out again. The only trouble with the tube-option that I can see is the hassle Mav will have re-addressing them (unless we pre-wrap them in brown paper (more expense...) first). Keep BC free and open for ALL.

Lee Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I've got some 14" x 21"... not sure how I can get them out to you though (perhaps I should stick them in a bigger envelope and post?). Can probably get 10 or so, how many do you need? Steve-B has a good idea, perhaps I could cover Croydon and surrounding area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
