Central Scotland - HS meeting #4

Bestgear · #1 January 8th, 2008, 05:58 PM

Hi Folks

I guess we should get a date in our diaries for the next meeting.

All are welcome... just let us know if you are attending so we know to look out for you!

As its Gogs turn to pick the location - please let us know where this time! I am more than happy to return to your last choice in South Queensferry.

As for dates... March seems a good idea....

What about: 7th, 14th or 21st?

Votes on a post card please...

I can make the 14th or 21st, but the 14th would suit me better.

Hi Guys,

21st March is the only one of these dates I could make.

If you are happy with The Ferry Tap, the last venue I chose, I would go with that. BTW., the food has improved greatly.

Bestgear · #4 January 10th, 2008, 03:13 PM

oops...

Bestgear · #5 January 10th, 2008, 03:13 PM

Hi Guys

So, 21st looking good, as long as Malcom is ok with that and Andy - it causes you no big problem.

Lets what and see what Malcom says.... and it gives Gogs time to nurse his war wounds when he gets his rebuild done....

Ferry Tap? fine by me - just hope parking is better than last time!

No great problem, I don't finish work until 7 though.

aaaaaaaaah!! what are you trying to do to me guys!! 21st March = Wedding Anniversary!

I think that's also Easter weekend.

I could do the other dates but I see Gogs can't - would the following weekend - 28 March be an option?

Bestgear · #8 January 15th, 2008, 04:00 PM

Dont Panic!

I'm ok with the 28th... guys? you ok?

DJ

TechnoJunkie · #9 January 15th, 2008, 07:44 PM

28th is fine by me.

Andy

Gogs · #10 January 16th, 2008, 10:52 AM

Yes I can go for the 28th March.

Did not realise we had picked Easter weekend.

Bestgear · #11 January 16th, 2008, 12:01 PM

Ok, Voting closed... March 28th it is at the Ferry Tap, SQ.

See you all there!

Any new faces are more than welcome to come along.

DJ

PS - Gogs - I have your "tent" from last time...

MalcolmS · #12 January 16th, 2008, 02:45 PM

Great! Looking forward to it.

I drove past the Ferry Tap the other day, and it seems to be a 3 day camel ride from the nearest car park.

Is it? or is there a wee sneaky one round the back?

Andy

Bestgear · #14 February 20th, 2008, 03:41 PM

Gogs/Andy

Yes, parking is a real pain.

I had to park miles away and leave the car, which is the only thing against that venue... I prefer to be able to be within eye-shot of the car....

Happy to stick with it if no other "Gogs" venue is available....

Yip, now that you've got the new fancy one.

4 litres....It's nice to see you are single handedly keeping me in a job.

Andy

Bestgear · #16 February 20th, 2008, 04:21 PM

Andy...yeh...its not thaaaaaat baaaaadd...... as long as you only use 80 of the 400horses... hehe!

DJ

MalcolmS · #17 February 21st, 2008, 03:08 PM

400bhp!! what did you buy?

Bestgear · #18 February 21st, 2008, 03:11 PM

Oh, just a little XKR... quite fun... when I learn how to drive it...

DJ

Gogs · #19 February 22nd, 2008, 10:13 AM

Andy / DJ,

Let me have a think about other possibilities.

Your right though, if you cannot get parked on the seafront, which is almost impossibe on a Friday evening, the nearest is the car park at the Co-op. There is a lane runs from that carpark to the Ferry Tap which reduces it to a two / three minute walk.

But I'll put on my thinking cap anyway.
