every 7 years? :drunken:

Is that a Scottish thing?

Will we need visa then to participate because of Brexit, or will Scotland have it's own Ferry-harbour and will the Scotts have the Euro by then... :lol:

Anyway and anyhow: I will participate, so write me up! :wink:

:oops: I thought I had missed something. Too busy out enjoying myself. Annual trip at the weekend with a few friends, I was beginning to think I had maybe passed you all.

Take note, the water is lovely in Scotland at this time of year. Pack your shorts at all times.

Yes pls! Will make sure we are there in a Porsche! I agree 2021 is better as next year we have CLM and Jeremy's alpine adventure. Happy to help with any organisation.

I don't know if everybody remembers but we had 2 cars break down (the 912 was already having work done) and we had to come in a rental car! The 356 was a good car and broke down in 500m of home (loosen ignition wire) but the Defender waited until we were 60 mins away to stop!

Correct Mike. Great spot if anyone is travelling in this direction. Well worth trying to find this beach, stunning.
