Sounds like a good plan Mike. Please put me down for the convoy (will need some earplugs for sure!)

Mike - how many will there be? I've got a fair bit of space at my place.

Don't know if pmjt towers can handle the numbers, lets see whose interested and go from there!

Mike - we've got four free double rooms - and there's two bed settees over in the annexe - plus there's LOADS of room in the annexe above the garage - and a field for anyone wanting to camp it

The tent takes six comfortably.

In addition - Mr. Hot66 has space - if we can save you a few quid on a B&B then it's no bother by me

sounds great Philip, thanks again for the offer. Potentially 10 to 12 cars, perhaps couples could avail themselves of the double rooms and 'sad gits' to the annexe, overspill to a local pub/hotel. Makings of a great pre Scotland bash, chance to warm up for the weekend

Mike - beer's always cold here and if the weather's good BBQ it is

There's a pub down in the village with rooms - if you let me know how many are needed I'll check the dates with them - it's the Wellington Arms in Darley, about five minutes drive and about 30 minutes walk

There's a big field at the bottom of the garden for those up for it

Thanks Philip, we will formulate numbers later this month at the next Fairmile meet (21st February) and get back to you. Looking forward to it.

Count Me & Mrs G. in for the run up and stop over, I think we first mentioned this way back at goodwood last year.

If it gets dark on route I'm sure Boosty & I could offer a little extra candle power for us

(once i get the fuses, relays & alt. upgrade in place of course

)

Great offer Philip

, looks like a full house

As mentioned I have field for camping too, or a really nice B&B nearby ( Gary & Mike can vouch for it

.

I'm just off the A1, bit further North than Phil.
