** The Scotland Meet 2008 **

Folks,

Apologies for the lack of meets and interaction with the Scottish battalion.
Anyway, it’s time for the ‘Scotland meet’ so to Spk and I really want a good turn out. If possible all of us!

The ‘Proposed date is Saturday the 4th of Oct’ , however at this early stage we can bend the date. But preferable before that date as my Vee comes off the road for the winter the end of Oct.

The route will be once again starting at my house, nice and central to the west coast roads and a nice picture opportunity to boot. G84 7AX is my PC in Helensburgh; however I’ll be comin down from Aberdeen the night before.

Proposed route, Inc stops. I know most of you are familiar with the roads, but fook me they are epic…on a good day or bad!

V-Rough guide:

Depart Helensburgh
Garelochhead
Arrochar
Rest and be Thankful
Via Oban
Glen Coe
Etc

Obviously I’ll work out a proper route with the old man, he’s familiar with all the roads from frequent classic car runs…We’ll avoid are dicey roads…

I given a good bit of notice for this, so hopefully people can plan for it and put a weekend aside. I’m guilty of saying I’ll do something then pulling the plug as I’ve not accounted for it either money or time wise…So lets make this a good one.

Views first of all…Then we’ll firm up the details, I’ll take care of booking restaurants and writing the route, but obviously any input will be invaluable!

“Sorry for the appalling grammar and spelling!”

Sound good Ali, but i can't make that date, i fly out to Vegas that Sat. Is it possible to move it to the weekend before that ? if not, then no probs.

**Edit - I've ammended the date in the main post!" Rgds Ali
 
Weekend before is do-able...I'm away to the ring on the 18th so the following weekend is out for me.

I'm home on the 25th September but have something planned for the 27th which is the weekend before. The 4th of October would be good but if some guys would rather change it to the 27th September then i'll try and get to another meet sometime.

Thanks mate

Folks the proposed date is the 4th of Oct, not the weekend before i edited my original post to suit Dave's diary.

Appologies for the confusion! If your also worried about distances i can look at possible B&B's local to the start point!
:) Would be great if all could attend!
 
Going to try my best for this one Ali, Got a big offshore job coming up so may be stuck out there but I also wanted to get the car tidied up whilst away. With a bit of luck I will be there and my car will be cleaned up for the occasion ;)

Just need to decided who to take...the wife or my son.... :badgrin:

If the route can be mapped out then I can meet up at a certain stage if times against me.

Liking the sound of this! :D
4 Oct is my only free Sat in Oct (so far!)
so definately put me down as a maybe! :approve:

I'll check back closer to the time...
 
Cool! Ideally need numbers...So i can book stops on route and restaurant!

Try your hardest one and all! :)
