iTrader: (1)

It's around the Inverness area. I might be there, depends what my car situation is like.

nyquist

any reason why the 14th? the mrs aint gonna be happy - any nice restauruants in the area

MCGARY

I will be going if i am home. Its always a mad rush to get to the stages before the come flying passed so i will have to get a map to see where they are going exacctly. Are the leaving from the thistle hotel as usual? There is quiet a few good resturants so you can treat the wife afterwards.

halowrx

Cafe number one is excellent mate...

Nice P1 mate saw you the other day, was on my way to get the geom set up..

Will be at snowman if I ever get this car going right !

Kendo

Yeah should manage that (will just tell the wife i'm taking her shopping )

Dougster

What's the script then for a gaf for the night?

Gonna treat Dodgy to a Valentines Night she will not forget!!

We have full winter camping gear but would rather not use it if there is anyone in the area with a barn and a couple of donkeys!!!

MISS SCOOBY STI

Cafe 1 is excellent - also very busy usually, so best to book first. same with the Mustard Seed.
They have the starting ramp in the High Street now, usually 9am. Best place to see them b4 any damage done
Will let u know the routes nearer the time if u like.
Note: be careful and watch out for the plods!

Johnny50

Hotels are gonna be busy think.
Although we've just booked into a Travel Inn for the 2 nights.

I forgot 14th was valentines day..so still gettin grief about goin away.

MCGARY

Hello Halowrx, I saw you the other day at the petrol station in Alness parked at the car wash. Well i take it it was you in a red wrx. My mate said he also saw a p1 out the next day as i don,t think it was me you seen as mine has not been out since 3 weeks. Will have to take it out for a wee run soon. Cheers and all the best Gary

halowrx

Always at the car wash !!

I assumed it was u since the guy flashed and waved, must b another sitting about somewhere..

Travel inn is pretty central in Inverness if ur planning an overnight stay, its ok but eat out

Cafe one, Mustard Seed, La Rivera - there is a fair amount of good places to take the romantic half too...

Little Miss STI - do u have any route details just now ? got my brakes sorted so defo heading out for this

Nick_o_Teen

check out www.highlandcarclub.co.uk/snow-04.htm
for details

halowrx

BTT for this is anyone going to this after all or is it a dead end

Trying to get some plans together..would be good if a few of us could meet before/during/after the rally ?

MISS SCOOBY STI

Details are:
Scrutineering Friday 6-10pm, Peugeot Garage, Harbour Road, Inverness.
1st car leaves start ramp on High Street at 9.30am on Saturday.
Rally stages will not be released to competitors until 5th Feb, but stages will be north of Inverness.


Anyone wanting accommodation better be pretty quick - rumour has it that no rally cars etc allowed in Thistle car park on Friday night, so reckon lots of the travel inns etc will be booked up!

So, who's all going then?

MCGARY

Well I will be going if i am still at home. I told herself that it will be the best valentines present ever. So i might see a few of you folk there. Hopefully. Cheers Gary

Johnny50

I'm booked into a Travel Inn ( i think, whichever one is in the centre)for the friday and saturday, but now might not be able to make it.


The room is paid for, so if anyone gets stuck, let me know.

GEORGEB

I'm going too

scoobymy01

can anyone tell me is the rally heading towards the black isle way or does it go the other way Forres , Elgin etc ?

thanks

halowrx

Last yr it went up past Contin then back round Forress way, I keep hearing that its going to be mostly north this time..

Think will get a better idea on the 5th when the competitors get the details

scoobymy01

thanks mate , will keep my eyes peeled on here

Johnny50

Anyone know of a decent place to go out on the saturday night ??

Spooks

Dont think I will be getting along to this after all, the missus is going out the night before and dont think she would appreciate getting up at 5ish for a long haul up the road after a night on the tiles, or me abandoning her on valentines day
Spooks

andyr

Believe that all stages are to the N of Inverness this year - a fair hike for me (Edinburgh) so may have to give it a miss unfortunately.

Johnny50

Plenty folk from Edinburgh coming up with me...
Should be around 5 car loads..

Will keep an eye out for any scoobs.

MISS SCOOBY STI

For McGary

EddieC

oops going up to Nairn that weekend will need to watch out for plod as they are always about when the rally is on.
Anyone know for certain that all action is north of Inverness this year?

Johnny50

Dont know for certain, but everyone so far has said it is.

I'll check the Newpig rally website for info.
