Could be any McD'd anywhere though... rather have somewhere a bit more scenic with decent roads. Thanks for the suggestion though :wink:

P.S. I only suggested Burntisland 'cause it's been years since I was there last, any other suggestions welcome...
I'm sure there will definately be a cafe somewhere thereabouts

If not

I could probably sniff out a half decent watering hole, as an alternative

Burntisland or St Andrews... TBD

If you're going we could meet up on the way (e.g. over the bridge).

OK everyone!!!!

Another mammoth PM session complete (I hope you all got yours :wink: ) - although the number which are still sitting in my outbox suggests you might not all get 'em :-x

I wish you could send a PM to multiple recipients (although I suppose that wouldn't be a personal message then... :mad: )

FYI, here's the 'standard' message again:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello folks,

Just a reminder that I have to get the numbers into the organisers by the end of the month - TUESDAY!!!!

Please, as a matter of urgency, confirm which day(s) you are coming and whether or not you are camping.

I also need payment from you (as I have to pay the organisers), as follows: £6 per car entry (covers both days) £8 per pitch camping

Please confirm by return email, thank you.

Payment by cheque (address below) or PayPal (gary_palmer@intenseco.com) - please add £0.25 to cover PayPal fees, thank you.

Alternatively come along to the meet this Sunday and pay me in person! http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... 561#782561


Best Regards,

Gary Palmer
SEE YOUR PM!

Tel: SEE YOUR PM!

P.S. I'm sending this email to everyone who's on the list, apologies to whomever has paid already (you know who you are)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you didn't get your PM please let me know ASAP!!!!!!

St Andrews Bay is a bit rich for us no?

There's a few decent cafe's on the main street, with parking out front. I'd be OK with one of them?

So, how about meeting at the car park next to the Old Course (near the R&A building), it's public, nice views and easy to find?

I think it's on the corner of Golf Place and The Scores:
http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x ... search.srf

How about meeting there at about 4pm?

Grant, if you can make it after your work why not join us?

Good on you Craig! How about meeting at the McDonalds/Petrol Station on the A904 at South Queensferry just before going onto the bridge, say at 14:40? I reckon it'll take ~1hr 20mins to get to St Andrews from there.


Anyone else heading over from the central belt? If you wanna meet up and head on over together then why not meet us at St Queensferry? You have my mobile no. in the PM I sent, call/text me if you want to meet up.

Grant, are you gonna be able to make the meet... you can always come a bit later and meet up (after work)? If so, give me a call/text (no. on the PM I sent).

Otherwise, what are your questions?
