davidfowler2000 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Scotland did dinner type stuff at Carlisle so I am just home now. I suspect the other pair are still an hour or so away from Kilbirnie considering Rambo was driving out of Carlisle. They passed me while I was filling up at Todhills and I then got delayed waiting to pay due to a queue. I passed them like they weren't moving before Lockerbie. eddyramrod, KruJoe and John F 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KruJoe Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Dunno how I managed to loose you lot on the run out... So sorry Hooli, we figured you'd dropped off to treat Lucky to that walk you promised her! Sincere apologies. Looks like you had fun though, the two of you. We missed that boulder! Â Onwards...

Ghosty Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Cheers Joe, looking at your route I'll drop off the pack around Grange then as I want to walk to the Bowder stone with Lucky.   Dunno how I managed to loose you lot on the run out, but I ended up in the same places anyway...   We thought you'd dropped off as mentioned! We did stop at a pub briefly to regroup which might have caused further confusion. KruJoe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hooli Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I was going to drop off a couple of mile before the stone circle, but never mind. I had a laugh anyway. Ghosty and KruJoe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As usual this will be an abridged version with the full collection online at my Flickr page : https://flic.kr/s/aHsm1hCxN1 I had speculated Justin and Rambo were about an hour from home in Kilbirnie when I arrived home in East Kilbride at 11pm. Turns out I was dead nuts on as Justin sent me a text to say he got home at midnight. I was amoungst the first to arrive.
