Request for Ride & Haul Help This Weekend

Hi folks!

Sabina Bromley here, daughter of Malcolm Bromley,

First of all, I’d like to give a big thanks for the warmth and support extended to myself and my family at this time. It’s meant so much!

Second, I’m getting my dad’s place in ship-shape this weekend . To do that, I wondered if I might ask the following favours:

1.   May I hitch a ride? (a) Monday, August 3, from Thetis to Victoria anytime, or (b) Tuesday, August 4, from Thetis to Victoria or Duncan before 4pm? I can help with gas.

2.   Recyling/refuse/good-will hauling? Would someone with a truck be able to help me cart away a load or two of stuff ? Though buff enough to load a truck, I will be, albeit, truck-less :)

I can even leave it outside for a reliable individual to cart away, and I’m more than happy to help with $$$ to make this happen.

Thank you in advance for considering :)

"The oldest scientifically verified vine in the world is the Old Vine in Maribor, Slovenia and which is estimated to be around 400 years old. The vine grows by the river on the front of a house in Lent and is a symbol for the city's rich wine culture. The vine features on an illustration dating back to 1681 and still yields 16-25lbs of grapes."
