[stoney]

see you have got me down after text indian if fine for us :thumbs up:

[DigitalLemming]

I should be good for this as well. Indians fine by me.

[weefossy]

Good idea William. Like you, we have missed too many runs this year, for one reason or another. So 17th seems like a goer for Mom and I. North Berwick indian restaurant does an excellent " eat all you can buffett" for £10 a head, but doesn't open till 5.00pm. Fish supper at Eyemouth or North Berwick would be an option if they are within your planned route?

[Craig]

Should be fine for us :)

All added. Malcolm was thinking something similar.

[stoney]

We could always stop for a
Light lunch the any one who fancies go for an Indian later on ? But it's up
To Willam as its his run :)

[weefossy]

The indian food is worth waiting for. :thumbs up: Mom might be able to get them to open earlier, if there are enough people.

[EcosseGP]

I might be up for this all going well ;);)


At 8000rpm no-one hears you scream !

[DarnShiv]

Wiliam, can you put us as possible. Just found out that I am going to China on 10th, but not sure what day I will be be back.

[AndyP & Lenore]

William, please put us down as "mebbies" for this one. Would love to do the run but I'm afraid Lenore isn't an indian food fan, so if it's lunch we may pack a lunch or find somewhere else, if it's evening meal we may come on the run then leave you to your din dins.

[MINI William]

Meeting time up

[MINI William]

Thats the run notes complete folks. Should be up shortly after I have sent them to Alan.

Can I ask that everyone brings a flask with hot water in so that we can make tea along the way please, as we do have a few tea stops along the way. Could I also ask people to bring some homebaking (or shop bought we won't judge) cakes etc to accompany the tea/coffee

[DigitalLemming]

William, do you mind if I bring along some soft drinks as an alternative? I don't own a flask! and don't drink tea/coffee normally.

I would make something to eat but someone might eat it all before it gets to you :Whistle: so I'll grab some things from the shop that way I can't eat them without opening the wrapper first!

No bother Andrew. Was just thinking something hot I case it's cold.

[DigitalLemming]

Yep no worries, will see if the folks have one or two I can borrow for the day as well. I'm sure they will, they've got all sorts of stuff hidden away.

William, really sorry but looks like I'm a 'no show' for the run now :argh:

In middle of 'pre-Christmas Madness' at work and yet anther rush job coming in at end of week which will require a Sunday Shift (can't do it on Sat as Dad and I have a day planned and a classical concert in Glasgow Royal Concert Hall that night). Work gets in the way of FUN yet again :frown: but can't turn it down as we're a skint Voluntary Organisation and need to make dosh when we can. Sole colleague still off on long-term sick, so on my tod in here as well...

Have a good one folks - send me some Pakora by NMS JCW Home Delivery!

PM your new address and I'll send you my Xmas Dinner Deposit which I was going to bring on Sunday

I'll make the run on Sunday but will do the lunch break rather than the restaurant meal at North Berwick.
Is 10.30 the meet up time at Loanhead?

There is nowhere for lunch is more of a grab something to eat at one of the many stops and tea. 1030 is the meet time for Loanhead.

Can people who are coming to the Indian let me know so I know for numbers.

Folks, there is plenty of choice and the restaurant puts flavour before "chilli power". Tasty food that doesn't have to blow the top of your head off.

Updated thanks folks thanks

[DarnShiv]

Gutted that we can't make this. Have a great day out and we will catch you on the next one. :thumbs up:

[weefossy]

Well, not surprisingly we are first home. What a great day out, weather was great and the pace was just right. Excellent curry to finish off.
Top job William, thanks again for all your hard work.

[cuddles]

Home and in our PJS with a nice cupa tea xx had a great day xx thanks William and Brian xx

[MINI William]

That's us home and the GP in its new garage for the first time. Another great NMS day with the usual suspects and some new faces with some great roads, people food and thankfully nice weather. I did try and introduce myself to the new people. Thank you to everyone that came along today,hopefully everyone had as much of a great day as we did. Thanks to Malcolm and Siubhan for organising the Indian and to Mum and Dad for the help with the roads and keeping everyone in check at the back. I will get some photos up ASAP.

[d.oxley72]

Back home.
Thanks for a enjoyable day out and for organising a good meal. Thanks also to those who kept me right with the navigation. :D

[Craig]

Home about half and hour ago- knackered !

Slight detour round the harbour before we left North Berwick (it would be rude not too!!)

Fantastic day out as always with NMS. Good to see such a good turnout and the weather was great for the most part.

Thanks William and Brian for your hard work and keeping us all in line ;)

See you all at the Xmas lunch :)

A special thanks though to William and Brian for organising the run and keeping us all on the straight and narrow and also Siobhan and Malcolm for organising dinner .. Brilliant !

Excellent photos too ... My other half is already asking when the next one is !!!

Thanks William for another great NMS run, only my second but both have been great. Nice to meet some of the members I've not seen before and some of the guys and gals I met at the first one again.

A big thanks to Siobhan and Malcolm setting up dinner, great end to the day. Hope you've made it home by now Adam and thanks to you and Ali, don't think I'd have found my way to the A1 without getting confused and lost. Trust the Krispy Kremes where worth the detour!

Only took one wrong turn this time, in my defense that wasn't my fault I was following the car in front! :p

I had a dashcam that hopefully caught some good stuff, but it's being a pain and won't work with my laptop so will need to try it in work tomorrow.
