Hi everyone.
Sorry I am a bit later this year with the announcement of next years event.
HIGHLANDER 2015 will be from Friday May 8th to Monday 11th. It will be hosted by the Tontine Hotel in Peebles (which was excellent last time we stayed there in 2009). I have pre-reserved rooms under the group booking DUNLO8052015 The cost is £55 per person per night and includes dinner, bed & breakfast. (Dogs £5 per stay) Just decide which nights you wish to book and call the hotel on 01721 720892
So get booking and we'll look forward to seeing you there!
And yes I know it's not technically the Highlands but it'll be great just the same.
Cheers Alan
1. Alan Dunlop & Andy Mcculloch 2. Neil & Katie Sutton 3. Steve & June Duxbury 4. David McKillop 5. James Brown 6. Glenn & Susan Neilson 7. Iain & Jayne Adamson 8. 9. Robert & Wilma Hay 10. Alan Dunstan & Janet Landauer 11. Jim & Libby Garstang 12. Terry & Lynn Garnick 13. John & Lyn Ponting 14. Jon Baker 15. Iain & Anne Mitchell 16. David Alexander

I rise to the bait every time! There's been too much nonsense started by that chap from Kent and Mr Dunlop, supplying MGB's and 3's for the Highlander, which in true form is always run in the highlands and only has MGF's in its purest form. I seem to remember a Ford Puma, a Scoobie, a Caterham with no handbrake, a Lotus Elise,a MGRV8 and yes even some of those modern TF thingies attending in the past, no matter what the car everyone is always made very welcome on the highlander. I think MGFTG and P323XJR may have to make an appearance. I bet Jims cars aren't orange! Would you mind if one or 2 day trippers were to cross the border and sneak on to the highlander (southern uplander 2015)? Happy New Year to you all. Terry and his beloved birthday F 18 years old today.

If the reivers from South o' the Border don't object, I'd like to bring my Chinese tintop back for another go!

There appears to be an issue with bookings. I've added some in today but the hotel only had four reservations. I've added the current bookings to the 1st post on this thread. If you have booked or think you have and are not on the list please check with the hotel.

Hi Alan. Originally we were not available for this as we expected to have spent all our limied pensioner funds in Holland but have decided to give that event a miss so we can attend one of our best remembered weekends. I have just emailed the hotel with a booking request for 3 nights from Friday using your booking reference. I shall confirm on here as soon as I hear back from hotel.

I think it might be a bit of an ordeal for the doggies, so it'll likely be just me again. As JP says, I'll post on here when I hear back. :-) Update: Booking confirmation received! So it's official! Peoples, Peebles here we come! :-D
