Its the last exit from the dual carriageway just before the bridge.

Probably marked South Queensferry

lo andy

i quite a strat forward road from the ferry m8 my parents have a caravan down that way so i know the road that you will be coming up.

just turn left out of the ferry and head for glasgow,its basically that easiy once you are outside stranrar you will be heading for kilmarnock on the a77 which in turn takes you to glasgow from there you take the m8 to the forth road bridge and meet up with a load of us there or you can take the kincardine bridge route to knockhill its up to yourself m8

the road is a good scooby road but it is also a good road for the traffic coops so just watch yourself.

times are a roughly gauge.
stranrar-kilmarnock 90 minutes
kilmarnock-glasgow 40 minutes
glasgow-knockhill 60 minutes

we will be leaving kilmarnock to go to maxys early in the morning so if you want to tag alonge give us a bell we should be leaving ruffly when you is due into kilmarnock.

so coffee with to sugar then (black)

Looks like everyones meeting at my house

10.30 at maccy dee's seems a bit early...gotta speak to dougie and see what time he wants to be at my house for, but if he doesnt mind getting here earlier then will be there at 10.30.

However if he gets to mine late or we get held up then will probably be at maccys for about 11.15

See you all on Saturday

OK. I can make it up, so Dougie, you have mail, let us know if I can tag along to your convoy (also in your my.scoobynet in case cannot receive your e-mail)

So if any of you see the silver MY00 with only 1 rear side skirt, and a scratch along its back left panel, that's me, so say hello

Dougie, cheers, at least I worked out the phone problem eventually

Thanks for the journey through, saved any unfortunate getting lost incidents

Andy w, you get home OK? I was slightly concerned when we got stuck in that tailback before the Forth road bridge, but at least it cleared fairly quickly.

RichS, we had expected the locals to be able to avoid roads like that

Good to meet so many of you there.

Cheers

Robbie, Cheers for the help on the way home.

Absolutely no probs getting to Cairnryan was there early.
I put some silkolene octane boost in at the track and had great fun finishing off the rest of the tank on the way home, that stuff REALLY makes a difference, didn't notice it on track but on the way home WOW!!
Pity it's so dear or I'd use it all the time!


Thanks to every one for the help!!
Great day!

David got your mail no probs at all!
