I'm the admin on a FB site for finding livestock loads farmers / livestock owners to transporters etc

All the requests are moderated before posting.

This one is in pending:

"I’m looking to get transport for myself and my donkey from Weymouth to Liverpool on Sunday or Monday. Is anyone making a trip north up the M6 then? I needn’t go all the way to Liverpool, could be dropped off at a service station near to Liverpool on the M6 if convenient. PM me or call if interested."
