Apologies to all of my friends in chat and on the forum, I am away for three weeks at least and may not be able to connect very often. Scotland is on haggis watch and the distilleries will be closing for the foreseeable future.
anyone with a supply of clootie dumpling is likely to be mugged, and the shops will be emptied of tablet and macaroon bars. Should I get snowed in I may be some time getting back. I hope to be able to dig myself out in time for Misterton so see some of you there.

Have a good trip Roger; the Scots have survived the ravages of an English invasion many times before I am sure they can cope with one "not so" Wildman from Devon.

Remember it's not the destination its the journey that's important.

Hi Wildman

Have a good trip, we normally are in Scotland at this time for 6 weeks, but circumstances have kept us at home. You will be hitting Scotland at just the right time as far as we are concerned so just enjoy.

Rumour has it that Hadrian's Wall was NOT built to keep the Scots in.....BUT to keep the Wildmen Out.....

Lock up your Distilleries.....

Seriously Though...Have a real great time Roger and Sue...:thumb:

Caravan since 1970, motorhome or RV since 1999 then back to a caravan in 2017.
Hil and I are currently at Witches Craig, lovely site with room for the largest unit within sight of the Wallace Monument near Stirling. On the way up from the Peterborough show we stopped at the C&CC site in Mablethorpe, Durkar in Wakefield and the C&CC site at Lauder where I had cranachan - delish!

Wherever you are - enjoy.:thumb:

Hi all, we set off on Monday but the motorway traffic was bad so we sat it out in Somerset. nThen mad a mad dash on Tuesday for Scotland where we met up with Gwerry Hughes, cheers for the parking spots Gerry. Got told whilst trying to get online at Dunfries my dongle would incur roaming charges of £6 per meg if I continued to use it. What is that all about is scotland not in the UK? Anyway thought I'd give it a go again today from Fort William, still not found any dumpling so not a happy bunny.Heading out of Loch Lomond a mad trucker rounded a bend doing 150mph and took both of my offside wing mirrors off by the time I could turn around and go back to look they had gone. Where are Carol and Eddie anyone know? Photos later.

I hope you don't mean that it's the right time as far as you are concerned because you're not going to be there !!

Naw - of course you didn't !! Just joking .....

We had a great time in Scotland last year - I envy you - enjoy yourselves - when the weather's good it's better - well, as good as - than going abroad ...
