I've been talking to the CC's rep for Scotland tonight to try to arrange a joint meeting later in the year. It came out in the conversation that they have a meeting at The Hawes Inn, So. Queensferry on Sunday 30/01/05 at 1400.
Does any one fancy making a day of it, with lunch at the pub?
Cheers,
Mick ------------- Current E30 325i, E36 M3 Evo, Previous E21 320/4, E9 3.0 CSA, E12 525, E30 320i, E28 528i, E34 535is, E30 318i, E28 525e, E30 325i Touring, E30 Baur 327i |

Hi guys, We've got five cars coming at the minute, but there's always time for more folk to change their minds. I've a feeling that the weather will play a big part in this and there may be some last minute decisions made.

Hi Mick Only just read this post! I would love to come as the wife has never been to Scotland! What time are you heading up and back and where in Bonny Scotland are we going? We have a charity concert we are attending in the evening (Thai Tsunami) so we probably want to be back home by 6pm to get ready.... Cheers

Hi Grahame, Was thinking of leaving the garage at Seaton Burn (next to the Holiday Inn) at 0945ish. Should get to So. Queensferry for midday or so, giving us time for lunch before we meet the Scottish guys. There's five cars coming so far, unless there are any more interested.... Cheers Mick
