sorry guys Sunday nights not good for me, I would literally be there for an hour before I had to get my kids home (primary school in the morning), and I don't want to drive for two hours(one each way) just to spend an hour.
Iwas hoping we could do the meet on a Saturday then the time wouldn't matter.
Maybe if we can have the next one on a Saturday I can make it. I am very disappointed
See you next time I hope!

Sorry Bob, just had to name a time and day you know how it is, mid week suits me but went with the majority, next time we will have one during the day as some people have to travel quite far. It's our first real shot, hope you can make the next one.

From the wheel we can either have a drive, go to the indoor karting or pop along to a local pub for a coffee

If anyone has any ideas post them up.

Ok, you will need to fill in a Blackmagic Waiver form available at the Scotland/England border

You must have a GRAY import, oh dear that was lame

Re: Scottish Meet 14th May Falkirk Wheel car park 7pm

This could explain why I had to sneak it back over the border from Newcastle last year

Maybe we should start a poll to see if I should be allowed to attend or just not be allowed to wash until then to hide the REDNESS

Re: Scottish Meet 14th May Falkirk Wheel car park 7pm

had a quick run up to the wheel tonight to scope the place out, not to good with directions so i used the sat nav, got me to falkirk ok, but then the road that it took me to the wheel was scary, single track road, where only one car could pass through, scary drive that was, got me there ok, safe to say i went another way on the way back.

Re: Scottish Meet 14th May Falkirk Wheel car park 7pm

from glasgow, bust yourself onto the m80 then m876 and take the 1st exit, you are 5 mins from there and 20 mins from charing x (speed limit dependant obviously)

for the rest of the lads from the east get to kinc bridge and follow the 876 to the signs and jobs a good un.

anyone fancy meeting in glasgow and moving as a convoy or everyone just wanna make their own way there? quickest way for me is kirky/moodiesburn/80/876 but can go glasgow if a few peeps are meeting there.

glasgow peeps meet somewhere llike garscube road or st georges road?
