!!Important!!

update: looking good so far, but i will keep an eye on the weather.

Andrew,

I spoke to a delivery driver today who works the huntly area,he reports significant snow still in the area.

Still been snowing in the evenings!

The cabrach is not the rd to be out on giving the high nature of the area,and that where only 2 days away and it's still cold outdoors.

Not a one for giving up easy,but as your previous post stated,safety has to be a consideration.

I will wait to see your response

Thanks derek, Can you keep me updated please. I will decide on whether or not to postpone the meet tomorrow.

Looking good for tomorrow everyone. let's hope for sunshine.

We will meet in the car park of the Thainstone center.

Hi,

Sorry guys i will have to pull out of this one due to a fault with the car(waiting on a fan resistor) i am going to try and get to the Scottish Italian car show in May so may see you there.

Regards,

Bob.

Righto Folks, First of all, apologies to those that can't make it, I hope you can make the next one

The meet will go ahead as planned tomorrow unless the storm continues, even then though we will do the runout in stages. When we get to Huntly, depending on the conditions we will either go west towards Dufftown or south straight to mossat, but if either are too dangerous we will turn round and go back.

I am hoping all will go well but i won't allow the runout to go ahead if it is too dangerous.

Well said Andrew for those that are still swithering about coming but havn't confirmed.

I would just like to say to all those that are viewers on the forum are more than welcome just to turn up at thainstone mart at 11.30 and take it from there.

There is a small chance i might have to step out of this one, i was struck down with a pretty bad bug last night and i don't feel too bright now, throaght swollen, sore head, vomiting etc.

I am going to dose up on some drugs but if i don't feel better i am going to bow out. i at least hope to see you all off at thainstone at the very least.

Well i made it. Big thanks to Malc (Madyak) and Derek (Geordie cabbie) for coming and, more importantly, not leaving me too far behind on the hills. Pics will follow in the image lounge later tonight.

Have the photo's been uploaded?
