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.

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 :wink: 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 :drunken:

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

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 :lol:

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 :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol:

Great offer Philip :) , looks like a full house :lol:

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.
