Aye considered doing that and would like to be along but got so much on it just couldn't be justified. Did buy the tribute sticker and do the Lanark memorial run though so hasn't gone unremembered. Basically would love to be along but can't do it. Gutted.

I bought mine last week too, so who knows i'll get it in time...can only hope. Think i'll be doing the same as you, although I might end up going further if I get carried away on the day(very likely )

No, i value my life I stay quite close to the bridge, not going to say exactly on the bbs
Just recently moved, was in lesmahagow then bothwell for the past couple of years, although my old man stays in the houses at the old market.
Sold the sti years ago, you'll probably see me floating about in either an E Class(Silver) or the ML(Black), Both private plates end in *** SF.
Are you local ?

Ps. If i am home, you'll usually see one or the other parked outside the Horse & Jockey during the week

Default HELP!!!!!

Me and my other half are desperate to go, just got the clearance from my boss the other day that I could get the weekend off and the stickers were sold out , is there anybody out there got the sticker but can't make it and would be willing to give/sell us the sticker, alternatively there were a lot of people bought 2, maybe you'd be willing to give 1 up???
