I'm in North East Scotland if anyone is interested in a 3 way split...bear in mind all three have to be delivered to the same address/store for the discounts to be given.

You can get a next day courier from https://www.parcelmonkey.co.uk for £7 (inc VAT) - I always use them, they mainly use Citylink or sometimes DHL, and I've always had great service. Might be the cheapest way of doing a split - get free p&p to one house and split the £14 cost of two couriers to the other two people three ways, so just under £5 each. Hth.0
