I don't choose where they build these things... :rolleyes: and it aint more that about 2 hrs drive... :laugh::clap:

[AndyP & Lenore]

It's a bit far to go for the people on the east coast!:moonie:

But then, if it was planned for somewhere in Edinburgh or the open air one at Dunfermline, it would be a bit far for the folks who live on the west coast.:sad:

I don't think I said it was cancelled ?!?!?! :rolleyes: Wimen..! :rolleyes:

tbh Fi, it is still on as the weather forecast for this week (at the moment) is much better (and warmer), although if I do cancel it, I will do it on Thurs (ie the day before) so as to give people notice.

For those on the list, just keep checking for updates. As of today, it is still on. :thumbs up:

[Craig]

thanks for letting me know.

[Craig]

anyone else want to come out to play on Fri night as the weather is MUCH better and the roads seem to be clear, plus the forecast isn't to be bad. :thumbs up:

[Scottie]

booked my half day from work looking forward to this.

[Ivano]

[Scottie]

[Craig]

:lol: Aye looking forward to this. Last time I played was in Florida in 2004 at Pirates Cove on International Drive :thumbs up:

[Stewart]

:lol: Aye looking forward to this. Last time I played was in Florida in 2004 at Pirates Cove on International Drive :thumbs up:

Did that when I went, it was late at night and great fun. next night we went to some Medieval I think it was Horse joust were you sat and had your dinner and watched them perform. Typical boo the Baddie fair and a bit cheesy but hey that Florida. :thumbs up:

We got any plan set for this or do we all just turn up before Seven looking lost
:smilewinkgrin:


And that the blooming snow back on here.

[Hamish]

I'm glad I came on here... I completely forgot about it!!! D'oh... Craig, I'm a no for this mate, I'm sorry, got a few probs down here and not gonna be able to get away.

Sorry again... Hamish

No worries Hamish, thanks for letting me know.. :thumbs up:

for those on the list what are your feelings? It's been snowing here a bit today, although the main roads are fine. More snow/sleet is forecast for tomorrow.

I don't have a big problem cancelling, as I would not want anyone travelling and putting themselves at risk - it ain't worth that.. Let me know your thoughts. :yes nod:

Stewart - i was just going to get people to meet inside at about 18:45ish and then we can get sorted with clubs etc. never been before, so it's all new to me too. :thumbs up:

[Scottie]

I'm happy to go as long as other folks are going don't want to go though if there is only three of four of us as it would not be much fun. So it's a whatever from me

[Stewart]

Fine here as well, I’m twenty mins away if that unless we get a white out overnight

[ny152]

I'm carless just now (the Fiat500 is no more!) but should be driving again by tomorrow afternoon fingers crossed. Not a MINI though :(
Happy to go with the flow.

[Craig]

Ok guys, thanks for the replies. Aim to be there for 18:45hrs and just meet inside. Fi - do you want to travel thro together?

[Ivano]

Craig, i am still up for this too. I pass by Braehead every night on way home from work anyway.

I will be there from around 6.30ish :thumbs up::thumbs up:

Keep me posted on any changes of plan due to adverse weather etc.. Its just raining here tonight in the West with me
