I was hoping to make it down for the day to say hello but fate had other plans. :(

Here's to a good weekend! :beer:

Great weekend so far. Shame you couldn't make it down Al.

That's me just in. In 1 piece this year so that's a bonus.
Got soaked with Pete and Mark at Biggar and rained all the way home
Still a fab weekend.

Cheers all.
Don't hassle me
I'll get there at some time

Another great weekend in Scotland :D
Thanks again to Al for organising and leading the way all weekend. I still think it's the best trip of the year and well worth the mileage and effort to get there and back.

We managed to stay dry pretty much the whole weekend too with only a couple of very light showers on Saturday :thumbup:

Nice to meet up with the regulars again and mix in some newer faces too. Roll on the next one :thumbup:

Here are my pics from the weekend:
Arriving and setting up the tents:


Friday night down the pub for some food, then back to the camp site for more beer :beer:
