No clubs but plenty of busy pubs at the weekend. The odd fight too mind!
Nice place though.

Take care crossing the (cobbled) street - lots of boy racers in Novas and XR2s in Kelso, although Mr Plod has been cracking down on them lately. Kelso is sleepy hollow, but there are a few decent pubs, no nightclubs, one cinema, mmm that's about it ....

Does that Scooby that was in the Monte happen to be a white one? I was there and that was the only one I remember seeing (other than the obvious ones!)

If it's the Kelso night life you're after, the town comes alive once a year during civic week. There's the Kelso bikefest and the rally on the same weekend and the all the pubs are full. There's even a few of the locals out for a drink as well.

Yep, that's the car. Dom also runs Brian Bell in the Focus. Interestingly when Colin was with Ford, Dom junior worked on the left front corner of his car and his brother was the gearbox man for Carlos! If ever you win the lottery and want a car built he is your man. I watched him build a WRC for another Irish guy and he is so particular and that's where reliability comes in.
Bladerider is right, civic week is a good laugh in Kelso it starts at the beginning of July, just in time for the Jim Clark!!
Cheers.

It's 45 miles from Edinburgh on the A68 through Dalkeith, turn left onto the A697 at Carfraemill, (Great hotel there for nosh on the way home)and turn right eeehhh can't remember the road number, (only driven it 46,500 times) on a left hand bend, well posted. Several cameras on the A68 and A697 but none on forgotten road! Bollands WRC looks white but it is a very pale pale blue / grey colour. You have to go and watch the Jim Clark Rally in July it will be out on that. Keep in touch and I'll give you some good stages to watch. Without doubt the best rally in Britain including the RAC.

Will be going to as many rallies as poss this year both in the UK and abroad so thanks, best stages to watch info would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the directions (much needed ) cheers.

Hello
Span
Unfortunatley have had to postpone this weekend due to work committments, but will be up there soon with the girls . Have fun at the rollers (kick sams butt for me)
'Scrap' - when I joined up I chose scrappy doo but that was already taken, then tried scrappy doo too, same again, so gave up and just went for scrap
Did ask a moderator to change it, but still waiting.......
