.......Use your car for essential reasons or even for recreational purposes but stop using them for shopping. Shop online and get the damn stuff delivered.

The cost of delivery is prohibitive and one is not allowed on buses with something that size i.e. 8ft long corrugated plastic roofing.

Yes (corrugated roofing, NOT a pice of perspex) and NO re delivery

Wickes charge at least £25 delivery for what they call 'bulky' items.

The roofing materials on ebay are collection only or expensive delivery again
