Guys,

So I can get my head around this a wee bit better can anyone who plans on taking part in the 'Highland Fling 2011' reply with answers to the following :

1. Best month for you and best weekends to work around :?
2. Happy to camp, crash at my place (limited space) or sort out your own digs :?
3. River, loch or both :?
4. Would you consider postponing to early August......... :?

Just to keep the ball rolling on this, but some trout fishing may be coming my way which I can't tell you about yet but has got me all twitchy  :wink

Number 4 means I could come too :z16
booked the tickets home yesterday, will be back from 13th July to 12 Aug
will be having a week away somewhere but that will be in the July half.
August is for fishing according to my lovely wife :z14
and a couple of days in the highlands with the outcasts would be Awesome. :z13

I could do August ATM.  Whatever suits really May, most of June and July is out for me already.  Thinking about it August would be perfect, if we are going to plan for this could we nail dates soon so I can get it on the calender at work before Cpt Mannering decides he's going to go torturing the motorists of Britain in august with his Volvo / caravan combination?


Cheers

Hi Hamish

Early August sounds good to me and would be great to meet up with Sandy too :cool:

Camping at your place sounds like a plan and I don't mind where we go fishing, anywhere with some keen wee troots is fine.

I wonder if Mike Livingston would make it over?

Cheers for now
Mike

OK - bit of PM work and we have a date for the weekend of 6th & 7th of August, suggest gather on the 5th.
Bedroom space is all booked guys.
I could put my 'man sized' tent up in the garden to save anyone bringing theirs, that has two bedrooms in it.
There's even an airbed for one of the tent bedrooms.
Rachel has decided she's going to stay up for that weekend, so everyone on their best behaviour or my nuts will be turned into something unpleasant with a blunt knife  :shock

Cool  :cool:

Provisional list of those hoping to make it to the inaugural Highland Fling:

Mike
Ben
Sandy (& maybe Daniel)
Jim
Kevin
Peter
Allan
Irvine
Iain
Noel
Kev
Steven
John
Me :!

Now that's probably enough and more than we managed at Lintrathen a couple of seasons back. However, just because your name is on the list doesn't mean you have to come along. Let's face it August is a wee way off yet :!
I will not be offended if folk don't want to camp in the garden and source alternate digs but I do plan on having a BBQ on the Friday evening with a few choice 'mild ales' and it would be nice to think we could get everyone together for that.
Ben can stay sober and drive, after all his bus car is big enough to carry everyone and the contents of a small but well stocked fishing shop :z7
