2017 S Club Eurotour Scotland

[magpies]

There is a possibility that my S won't be fixed in time for the tour (won't know until late Friday afternoon).

If that is the case would I be able to sit in with someone - may also need a second lonely driver for my son

We hope to both have SatNavs with the route and will share the fuel costs with the victims.

We will make it to Penrith and are booked in for the night.

Magpies,
I have a spare jump seat. You would be welcome, if you can bear a very untried griff for the weekend.

nice one.

[Dave_M]

Ian's tours are always great, jealous of you all and hope it was fun

[Longers]

Thanks Dave

It's been a bit quiet in here since we got back because everyone has been commenting in the WhatsApp group I set up to make communication easier while we were away. But yes, I think the rest of the group will agree it was good fun. VERY good fun!

It was an excellent tour.

Great roads/people/hotels/organisation/fun, even the weather was kind to us most of the time

Well, there was that hangeron in that BMW

at least Stuart started the tour in his TVR

and he chauffeured our Stephen around some of the route - went well for an oil burner too

[mk1fan]

Will be doing some investigations into Wendy this afternoon.

[Deeman]

Message to Big Ian - sent you a PM.

[magpies]

Michael at the garage has found the problem with my S - the ECU had lost the switched live 12v. Have run a temporary connection and drove the car home (via the monthly TVR meeting) we suspect a cable break or pulled connection behind the dashboard - oh great

more back breaking investigation

[mk1fan]

Wendy was similarly simple. 5 duff HT leads and the AFM wasn't properly plugged in.

Fixed now. Happy days.

[Swing Jive Lady]

Well Glen - is it true your navigator alias GreymrJ couldn't keep his eyes off the redheads on the Scotland tour? Sorry I missed it!

[Deeman]

These gave me the horn too

[glenrobbo]

Hi Debs!

No, greymrj's eyes were mostly glued to the maps and the sinuous curves of the roads we travelled over duration of the Scotland tour.
He did thank me for delivering him back home alive in one piece, as gradually some colour returned to his knuckles.

Yesterday he did show some appreciation of this old lady that caught his eye:



as well as a certain Mary Rose...
