idea the rest of us could meet you at abington services then we could go via the a73 to cumbernauld then m80 to stirling instead of going m74,m73,m80 ?

Paul450, did you get my pm saying route is fine with me?

Regarding Sunday farewells, I was thinking of staying another day in Scotland, so if any one interested in another drive out on Monday I would love that.

Counting the days down bounce

Not sure if you have decided on places to stop on route on the saturday? We pass a place called the Drovers inn which is just past loch lomond it's got a big car park and if the weather is good there is seating area's outside? It's also the oldest pub in Scotland apparently? Shame we will not be drinking that early hehe but it would be a good place to stop for a refreshment and to meet up?

Yeah I stopped there a few month ago and it seemed decent, might be a bit of an early stop though?

I haven't seen the route, but I live in Oban, if you're still going up to there and looking for a food stop let me know what you are after and I'll see if I can recommend anything. If it's a good day a fish supper on the seafront can be a real treat.

Nice alliteration, Paul! Hope we don't get swept away!
On a different note, others haven't realised your route won't be passing The Drover's Inn.
Personally, I think it's a dump. There's "character" and there's "needs a right good sorting out".

Ron,I think the "character" is the landlord's excuse for never cleaning or decorating the place!
At first we were going to have a bite to eat,but decided against it.

Ah my mistake just looked at the route again and we turn off a good bit before the Drovers in hehe When me and the missus stopped there we sat out side in the sun and the food was good so really can't really comment on the cleanliness of the place?

So looks like we will have to plan some where else to stop? Anyway you coming along bigwheel?

I'm in 2 minds about joining the run (especially as I live en route) or Leuchars Air Show on the Saturday.
I've been following the thread and would like to meet the Southern Softies!!
I'll keep watching that space and make my mind up nearer the date.
would be good to have you on the run smile

leuchars air show i used to go every year, not been for a few years as always working on the sat it is on.

Right need to sort out the sunday morning, as it`s only 3 weeks away.

i will try get some special parking like last year at Shakies & see if we can get a discount on entry.
