    How is the car now Andy? I'm going to travel up on the Friday, wedding all day Saturday and back down Sunday/Monday. I'm going on my own as it's a no kids wedding, so Susan has to look after the kids and the animals. My parents will be there though, and I will be under the close supervision of my Mum as she's anti-drink, even though I'm 34.

    We can try and agree on somewhere more central for all those interested, as I might be coming back down anyway. We've plenty of time to sort this.

    My trip up Scotland is only 4 weeks away now, so we need to start organizing this, if we're doing it. Who's up for it please?

    Let's see who else is up for this, but if it ends up being just us two, then I will travel back from Forres on the Sunday via the Aberdeen area.

    Sorry I can't commit at the moment, that weekend is slap bang in the middle of a short period between getting back from the Nurburgring and getting ready for Castle Combe - also have to get the D5 MOT'd in that time too.

    If I can head up I will, but I'm likely to be quite fully committed both time and money wise.

    Not sure how far exactly. If no one else is up for attending near aberdeen I will easily nip up to forres. I think the R is going in for its service down at perth either that friday or the one after, either way you can still get a thrash of it if you want, just watch my clutch haha.
    Thanks

    This is only a week away now. I'm travelling up on Friday, some work stuff around Glasgow, and then upto the true North later on Friday. Wedding Saturday, and then if not too hungover, travelling back down Sunday. It would be good to meet some kiltwearing VPCUK members, so who can make it, and where is best. Scotland is only the size of Lancashire-right? lol
