Rory - glad to hear that your able to come along and make sure that the Whisky is ok!

Chandra - Good to hear that your able to come along on the Saturday. Remember that if your buying camping gear to get a warm sleeping bag as it could be chilly and to bring thermals. We have a spare tent which you can borrow for the night if you want so you would just need to buy a sleeping mat etc...


The campsite can be paid by either cash or cheque on arrival with the owners, £8 per person per night.
Other accommodation nearby is either in the pub - 10 min walk from campsite -, or in the youth hostel - 5 min walk from campsite / 15 min walk from pub


Mike - can't believe your gonna be 50! Blimey!

Please add me to the list

I'll probally leave Edinburgh early Friday afternoon


See ya all there

Paul

Please dont encourage him it will make him insufferable all weekend

Hi Liz - have heard good things about Nanok too... we have Rab feather ones which are great (mine is only 2 season but is ok in winter with a blanket, Chris has a lovelly 4 season one! He also has a synthetic one which we use in the summer!)

Debseed - hope your able to come along... would be great to meet you!

Chandra - of course you can borrow the tent. Just make sure that you get a warm sleeping bag and some thermals!

Yeah!

Beej

The nanok bags look good, they do one that goes down to -45. Might be enough for Glencoe.
Or you could get the Ray Mears edition...Ray Mears/Nanok Sleeping Bag - Osprey, Sleeping Bags

am nearly sure i'll come up for the meet, will let you know deffo on tues 12th, if that is ok.

denny.

Are there any plans for Saturday daytime? I will be leaving home at 8am and hopefully should be at Glencoe by Midday.
I can always try and meetup out on the road somewhere, or else I can just be the in pub...

Just to let you know - I wont be able to make it - had op on my hand last week and don't get stitches out until Friday - still pretty sore - have a 50th birthday party to attend on Saturday - so will have to miss out on this one

Hope you all have a great time - will see you all again in the spring - will arrange something again at Cannich all being well - have a drink for me

Chris/Beej - loved the photos by the way - looks like you will have to wait a
little longer for the Serow test ride.

Doug - hopefully Angus will make Friday and you will get a chance to see if Africa in Jan is still viable - we have end of January booked off.

Hi All... just confirming the details for Friday!

Have spoken to the pub regarding food orders... just turn up, find a table and order... food available until 8pm in the bar & 9pm in the lounge. The pub will probably be busy so for those who are wanting to eat out the earlier you go the shorter the wait will be for your food!

We are expecting to leave Edinburgh at 2pm... ish! Should take us about 2 1/2 hours. Anyone who wants to travel up together from Edinburgh please let us know so that we can arrange a meeting point.

So depending on when your leaving or where your coming from you may get there before us! First person that gets to the campsite please choose an area with a good fire pit! Also... feel free to get the fire going.... hee hee

There is a shop in Glencoe village which sells basic supplies and dry kindling & wood and a larger Co-Op in Ballachulish which opens later.

Hopefully the weather will be dry so we will be able to enjoy drinks around the campfire... we have whisky!

I'm happy to give people my mobile number as a contact... please PM me with your mobile number and I will text you back!
