T'was a quiet one this year, but a good time was had by all
Took in some great roads, and enjoyed some excellent food and beer...

Nice to meet everyone I didn't know and see some familiar faces again.

Got some pics to post up soon.

Rich

 

Look forward to the pics Rich

 

Glad to hear you had a good time Rich, while I was offshore.

Look forward to seeing your pics, here's one of mine.

I feel sick now

 

You would have been in good company at the weekend, it's not often people are seasick on drill rigs, but there were several asking the medic for help here.

Still could have been worse, it would have been more unpleasant on that boat.

 

I was lying in bed on Saturday night and said that it was good weather for windsurfing! Maybe not then!


Amanda

 

lol - can u imagine a wind surfer taking off at the top of one of those waves?

wouldnt have touched down until he had been escorted to leuchars

i hope u were not speaking to urself

 

Ditto what Rich said. It was a fantastic weekend We had a feeling it would be a tad quiet when we drove through horrific conditions in the dark to get there, and we were the first to arrive at 6.30! Then a few more turned up, then nobody else turned up! The food was excellent, as was the whole of Friday night. Shame about saturday morning though When we finally set off, the routes were fantastic as was the scenery, i forgot how nice it is up there! thankfully the weather stayed decent for us so we could actually see the scenery

Looking forward to next years already!

Pics to follow! i just need to fill up the rest of the film first

 

I know I am a bt mad Phil but no I wasn't

Amanda

 

Ditto....

Good to meet familiar faces again and to see new ones.

Had a great time.

And thanks go to RichS for letting me live in his passenger seat for the trip!

 

Tosser, I know you are really in Barbados.

I thought I saw you by the pool only this morning.

Si

 

Just about recovered now...

Got back about 7:30 last night having covered 1300 miles since Friday Morning!

Shame about the weather on Friday (didn't see anything north of Glasgow & was glad to be following a 'Lochs & Glens' coach, for a change!) The Weather on Saturday & Monday more than made up for it though!

Shame there were only 8 of us, but we made the most of it an made sure we sampled nearly everything on the wine list

The limited numbers meant we had to decide on a route & time by ourselves, but this was all agreed quite easily in the bar and we could even agree on changes on the fly (as we did on Sunday) and make it up as we went along

I must say that the trip around the loch on Sunday morning was the highlight for me, awesome road! I'm glad I turned right instead of left now

Matt & I were so knackered on Sunday we stayed near Pitlochry then did the Loch Tummel scenic stuff on Monday morning in bright sunshine

The 'Essential Supplies' were well stocked up with £90 worth of Single Malts, some local Salmon and a haunch of Venison

Now all I need to do is wash the car!

Thanks to all who turned up for making it such a pleasure & here's to next year!

 

Yeah that trip round the loch was excellent
Very little on that road (we saw the occasional car - notablity a Skyline coming the other way), nice and twisty and good clear weather.

Thanks Chris for taking charge of the organisation and for doing all the leading.

 

A big thumbs up from me too

I got back at about half ten last night, with 1600-odd miles covered and I'm still recovering. Once I've got the camera plugged in I'll put some photos up, but it'll probably be tomorrow night by then.

Thanks to everyone involved for a great weekend and I look forward to doing it again soon

Cheers, Stu.


P.S. Got back to find out today that my girlfriend's car needs a new engine and the purchase of my new house has gone t1ts-up Oh well, at least it wasn't raining ...

 

Hi gang!

What a great weekend that was! Look forward to meeting you all again for another run around the wine lists!!!!!!

So now you can tell every one, who didn't know, what a GT4 looks loke and goes like!!!

Cheers
