Yay, got the confirmation of the hotel booking. Arriving on the 12th and leaving on the 17th, just to make sure we get there on time. Next job: Finding a boat! Ton (& Gea)

I have today checked that everyone listed is booked with the hotel and all is good. There are still rooms available so stragglers should still be fine.
See you all soon.

Morning Alan
hope you are well? Things have been a little crazy since we first met last summer, illness, work, hospital, marriage proposal (to me! blimey!), more hospital and surgery and I am now allowed to drive again...yippee.
Anyway, what is the format for the Highlander? is the 13th a run day or the hotel arrival day.
Looking forward to seeing you and other club members.
Take care
Steve

Hi Steve
Friday is really just the day we arrive with Saturday and Sunday being the runs. Sometimes a few of us travel up as a group but often a few come after their work.

Cheers Alan, I will keep an eye on the board to see if there is any group travel as I can join the group from Bridge of Allan as I would assume some would pass that way.
See you on the 13th

Do you have any ideas on routes yet? A very slim chance we might try and meet you at a lunch stop somewhere. We have a baby that doesn't like long car journeys.....

Hi Neil There are a selection of routes. The handbook will give route suggestions and allow participants to choose which they prefer on the day. This flexibility provides the opportunity to avoid poor weather (bearing in mind we were rained off the last time we were based at Pitlochry). One option I'd like to do is Inverary Castle which might suit as its only a couple of hours from you.

We'll see you all for lunch on Saturday, which are you planning to get there as we might try and intercept on route.

You should have gone to specksavers . In Tesco they keep the babies who like to travel in cars beside the car products . Tried to find a baby who likes flying ! Only Harrods sell them seemingly .
