Hi,
I'll not be able to make the weekend of 3/4th June unfortunately as my new job's got me travelling up to Dundee on the Sunday. I'll be there for 2 weeks so am busy then too.
Hope y'all have a great weekend.
Would've been nice to meet some of you.
Steve

Mark,
1) for a change and 2) as I cant be ersed with 400 miles of traffic jams 3) and cos I've never been 4) and Skye sceduled for July = Kirkcudbright
No idea of pubs and seafood restaurants but we shall camp and take it as it comes. Also just noticed there is a half marathon on Sat avro so may try that, and probably visit David Coulthards museum at Tynholm to see the thousands of trophies he has won

I intend to be at Callander again this year, and am trying to persuade my wife to join me. It's 26-27th August and details are here:
http://www.callanderclassic.com/body_CCW.htm
where you can also download the entry form (see attached pdf file).
Club Lotus Scotland will give more details of the Club Lotus stand in July's newsletter.
If the weather's good I will stay both days, but if it's iffy I might just be there on Saturday. Hopefully Andrew will be there to defend his "best Lotus" cup win.

Is that the Millets one that comes in a backpack and self assembles ?
I was thinking of getting one.
Does it really do what it says on the tin and self assemble. ?

Hmm, think someone took one of them to PistonFest. Only a single skin tent and real flimsy. Dunno if it will stand Scottish weather as it struggled with Norfolk!
I'd personally invest a little more and get something that will last.

Yes Monty - shame it wasn't on - we could annoy everyone on the campsite with our new PECO exhausts.
I'm thinking of going to Sykeside - the scene of the LEC washout 2 years ago

Called by Sykeside on the way back from PECO HQ. Just as well we didn't do the camping trip this w/e. Campsite mobbed with kids and families - half term again. What a bloody nightmare. Did a quick U turn and decided to thrash back to Edinburgh
Beautifull evening though and a great chance to drop a few cogs and hear the sound of the new exhaust reverberating off those Lakeland stone wall dykes
