Hi,

Mental last minute request please!!!

Someone has just accepted my offer of 9000 euros for this - but I can't get through on the number he has listed on his ad. He say's he will accept my offer to collect but I need to pay cash only.

Broken Link Removed

The number listed keeps coming up with "not recognised" even though I am dialling 003113..........then the number......

As I am trying to communicate via google translate it's a bit difficult.

I will need to take my daughter, the dog, and get the train down to Harwich and then across to Holland, if we leave tomorrow morning with overnight sailing we could be there Thursday to collect.

Anyone got any thoughts, as I don't want to go through all that if it's a scam, but to me, it looks a decent price and worth the effort involved.

Thanks you guys! ::bigsmile:

(Okay he's sent me the correct number now, but I still need a dutch speaker to phone him for me please?)

I feel like a member of my family has gone missing now. Sounds a bit silly doesn't it but I've followed Pinkie and her little family from the start and will be relieved when they arrive home safely. I have logged in and out for a week now and happy when they were updating, although I must admit I felt a bit as if I was checking the forum for news all the time. Too much time on my hands? Haha maybe. So I for one will be happy for Pinkie to update too, saying her phone is working and is travelling trouble free in the warmth.:Smile:

Like others i have been following this thread, only started a couple of days ago so had to catch up.
Reminds me of the old saturday morning matinee, always left to wonder what had happened to the Hero/Heroin, turn up next week for the next thrilling episode.
Where is she? What adventures are they having today?

I cant concentrate till i know.

For god's sake put us out of our misery !!!!!

Without spending a couple of hours reading through the thread again what evidence do we have that Pinkie actually existed... Or have I got this totally wrong .... Anyone like to summarise the evidence ... someone ......did it very well the other night after Crimewatch.

Well I did speak to her on a landline in the UK.
I also spoke to the seller in the Netherlands.
And was in contact with her in Tilburg.

I hope they are OK

Pinkie was in a thread for solo travellers a few days before she embarked on the purchase of this motorhome. It said:-

Love that post LucyCaitlinW! Good for you!

I'm looking at buying my first motorhome right now, but wonder (not wanting to steal the thread) but as a similar topic, lone female travelling with 11 year old and dog...........are there any people out there travelling with children?

Marjorie.

She also mentioned Morocco trip.

But where are they now. Her name must be Marjorie? Yes hope she is ok whatever her reason is for not updating her week of travels.:Confused:

Crumbs Meor. This forum is becoming like the Bermuda Triangle.:Eeek: When you spoke on the phone was there not a number came up that someone could contact her? It would be awful if we did nothing and this is a genuine gone missing.

Hi Joy

No I only have a Landline uk number

But Dave {Snowbird} has a Mobile number but it was flat.

I will try her home number in the morning just in case..

I think we are all a little concerned.
