First weekend in May is out as far as I am concerned,I have a commitment elsewere.

Friday's are 'difficult' for me to book off work without ages of notice,Sunday's less so...

Therefore any 'other' Sunday in May is fine,bearing in mind that us Englisher's need travelling time.

I have an itch to scratch called Applecross,would like to combine this event with a return to Applecross! :mad:

thus far, we have 15 'solids' and 8 tentatives. We need more people to get this off the ground.

We should have a rough plan for the end of January and I hope that attracts more people.

I'm not sure it'll survive the trip! At the moment it can't even get out of the garage. :( It's also a large cost for me, 900-1000 miles (lots of fuel), hotels, food, etc.

I'll have one and like you Colin, can bring more if needed, but with the numbers of punters posting in the "Scotland" thread we should be able to get more cars and people.

On the assumption that a golf outing is not likely to be popular, my suggestion would be a stand alone event and a full day thing, maybe a morning meet, scenic 30 mile or so fun run with 30 "clues" to solve en route with a sit down meal or something at the end.

It'll take some organising and I'm happy to assist.

Perhaps a local specialist could provide some sponsorship?

it'll be somewhere in Central Scotland - no more than 2-3 hours from Magpieland - probably in the Stirling area, it being as central in Scotland as you get.

You can go for a run anywhere on your road down and your road home.

I see this event having a series of convoys from key locations - e.g. North, West, East, South, all picking up attendees on the road and ending up in the same place.

There'll be an optional Tour of the fields of Bannockburn where the stench of felled Englishmen lingers yet.

Hopefully see a lot of you there.
