I'm on the scrounge please - I need a pair of two-way radios for a one-off event, and it seems daft to buy a decent quality pair when I only need them for a couple of days.

Does anyone in the Bristol area have a pair suitable for reliable car to car communication over a quarter-mile or so, that they'd be prepared to let me borrow?

I'd be extremely grateful, and prepared to express that gratitude in the form of a small number of beer tokens. thumbup

I have a set of four, but Cheltenham I'm afraid. Let me know if you get desperate!

Hmm, I'm on the scrounge for a pair in September for a one-off week long roadtrip to the continent. I have a pair but they are the crappiest ones ever - what you get for picking something up from local freecycle site....

Thanks for the offer Nic - I'll keep that as a back-up plan if I may.

Ive got some you can borrow. I live in Leigh Woods, let me know when you need them. They are small rechargeable Motorolas. I havent used them for a few years though but put them on charge the other day.

Great - if they've survived their lay-up then that would be perfect.

I need them w/c the 18th, so will send you a PM nearer the time - thanks!
