beko1987 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 The bouncy druid isn't a bad driver either Since your new Mr Saab, we can deal with this sort of stuff, reckon your field is better or worse? I think I'm right in saying that's the autoshite benchmark for facilities.

HillmanImp Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Buses fit in stupid places, comes from having a steering lock cars can only dream of. I always found maneuvering a bus into a space easier than a car (into a proportionally sized space). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saabnut Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 The only worry I have with the bus is height. My "field" is my lawn, so I hope it will fare better! Plenty of hard standing around my neighbours steadings etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearest hotels are Stonehaven and Montrose, about 10 miles. There are a few B&Bs more local, but not really sure what standard, but a minimum of 5 miles I would guess mat_the_cat and taxi paul 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johngarty Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Could everyone go in convoy, picking up others on route and slipstream each other? How much fuel would that save?

wuvvum Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I've booked the weekend off. I'm not a definite attendee yet, but I've been meaning to visit Scotland for years now and this might be the kick up the arse I need (although I wasn't intending to venture quite so close to the Arctic Circle).

I think you'll like it. Scotland is an incredible country. Four years ago, I was up there in the Sirion. We went right to the top to see the northern lights.

D Spares & Tyres Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I normally avoid Scotland after May due to the midge problem. What is your place like for them? They can ruin a holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saabnut Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I normally avoid Scotland after May due to the midge problem. What is your place like for them? They can ruin a holiday!Not too bad, though they can be a bloody nuisance. Early June they are not out in force, and providing there is 5mph of wind or more, they are not noticeable. Should shitefest coincide with a rare still day and early awakening midges, we can always retreat to the shed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsinthewelder Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I think my current plan is to drive up, drop kids and Ms C in Inverness before attending this, collecting them and returning home. It comes to 55% of the driving of Shitefest international. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
