UK listers - American SUV driver needs fun quattro ride near Leeds

[Jim Haseltine]

If he works in the GE Capital building on the Burton Business Park (Torre
Road) its no problem, I work 100 yards further up the hill on the same site.
I know that there's another GE site somewhere else near Leeds because they
run a shuttle bus a couple of times a day but I don't know exactly where.
Might be a bit of a problem at the moment though - I'm looking out of my
window at home at 4" of snow and considering that 99% of UK drivers know
nothing about driving on snow I may take a day's leave tomorrow - especially
as the snow covered part of my trip home was less than 10 miles and took me
over half an hour.

My work email is ian.haseltine at arcadiagroup.co.uk


Regards,

Jim Haseltine
