I'm thinking coming up for the gm weekend then staying in scootland til wednesday/thursday, then heading home. Anyone have any similar plans?

Might as well make an extra week of it... That's what I'm thinking about doing

Dave20046 · 15-01-10, 02:17 PM

I'll have to enquire, see how much holiday I get this year.

We've sort of done that the last two years, stayed till the tuesday. Always depends on the money and weather situation though.

Well, the time is drawing nearer, so thought I'd revive this thread.

We're still sticking to our plans. Anyone else made any?

Me and Claire have booked a caravan at the Applecross campsite for three days after the GM, so we'll be based there and aiming for tours of Skye, N/W coast and maybe the far north.
