    Just in time for Highland Tour… hopefully means the hotel will be slightly more relaxed when we’re in dining compared to when we were at MMM last month.
    Add 'vertical drinking' to the list and we are being spoiled rotten

    I'm interested in joining the tour.
    As I stay local to Aberdeen I would like to know at what time the group would be setting of from the Premier Inn at the Bridge of Don.
    Thanks, Jim L

    The question is, how long will we manage to stay vertical for …

    Matsarm, I guess you will likely know the answer to how long you at least will stay vertical for but that doesn't really help to answer my question as to when the group is likely to set off on the run.

    Crombers is the man with the plan and the person organising this trip so he’ll be in a much better place to answer your question.

    Im sure Crombers will be along shortly to answer your question. He’s a nightshift worker so probably giving it big Z’s just now.

    Mornin all & welcome aboard Camshaft

    Departure time on the Sunday from Aberdeen will hopefully be no later than 10am.
    There is no set time for breakfast as everyone can suit themselves. I'd imagime folks will be congregating around our MINI's at the back of 9/9:30 so I'd suggest around then to meet up with us all

    Sorry folks. Looks like work is throwing me a curve ball next weekend and we’ll not make it.

    Have a good trip and take loads of pictures
