We'll be coming down the West coast along the A77

If you come down the coast you'll be on the A77 and just before you come to Stranraer the A77 turns left, if you keep following this over the cross roads and down to the next cross roads then turn left still on the A77. Once a few miles out of town you should see the sign for PP where you turn right and follow the instruction as above once you reach the 30MPH signs at PP.

If you google it that should help.

I'm a newbie
Gerry, lorger, I'm really sorry, but it's looking more likely that we are not going to be able to make this due to Dave's parents deteriorating health. We are both upset about this as we were really looking forward to it.
If anyone is interested in attending and has not paid a deposit, please get in touch & you can use ours.

Lorraine sorry to hear about Dave's parents and their health issues, it would have been nice to catch up with you both again. I'll leave you on the list just in case anything changes or you swap with someone else, hopefully we'll catch up in a field somewhere soon.

Hi Gerry. :)

Another two for the Castle and Gardens Tour please. (y) It'll have to be the short walk each way for me though. The left hip plays up after a while. :(

Cheers,

Jock. :)

Gerry I'd be interested in the gardens IF I make it and IF my leg's up to it at the time. So no guarantees!

Funnily enough when I told Bev I said it was both but that I would only do the gardens, I like buildings from the outside more than inside ??

You can book a room or the whole castle for the weekend if Bev's interested :):)

Sorry pal, I thought it was both. :(

Nope, no bikes on this tour, and just as well, cos they'd not have been off the rack so far. :)

Cheers,

Not long to go now folks and apart from light showers Saturday morning it looks like we’re in for a lovely weekend.

Due to family illness a couple of attendees have had to cancel, if anyone else would like to join us please let me know rather than the site as it might saves these guys losing their deposits.

I’ve been in touch with the gardens regarding the tour and unfortunately they’ve said they would need a minimum of 20 to run it, unless we get enough names by Tuesday I’m sorry to say the tour won’t go ahead. We can just go for a nice easy walk via the pub instead ?

Thanks Gerry

Greedy chuffs at the castle needing £120 minimum just for a bimble round the gardens, we could maybe go to the outside and peer through any gaps, I will point out the few flowers I know and we will have £12 in the gin kitty for the pub :unsure: ? (y)

We are going to our beach on the Thursday night on the way up, via Dumfries Aldi and LPG, I think we have bought all the LPG we have used in the past 12 months from there (y)? anybody else needing any its on the road north from the Aldi roundabout about 1mile out on the left, little tight but we get in and out OK, LPG pump is on the bank nearest the road

See you Friday late morning

My thoughts exactly David regarding the Gardens. i think they're being a bit greedy. I think we may be joining you at your beach on Thursday night, we'll probably leave here around 4.30/5PM.

Gerry,

Is there still a cancellation available?

If so, can we have their place and give them their deposit back?
