Anyone up for, or available on a Sunday and a meet for lunch between now and September?

Possible venues:

- Falkirk, with visit to Kelpies or Wheel

- Roman Bonnybridge (for the historians) with walk along Rough Castle/Seabegs Wood (Antonine Wall)

- Stirling (Wallace Monument or Castle)

- Or a trip West of Glasgow in Silver_Fox's direction to say hi if she feels like coming out to play

I can only do July 17th, 24th, 31st and August 21st & 28th, but that doesn't stop anything else

Will most likely attend if date chosen is 31st July but please don't let that influence the decision.

"And so it begins...!"

count us in for this

Thinking cap is on but If heading west What about Ayrshire? Largs for lunch and icecream? and we could maybe catch Silver_Fox.

Yes, I'd wondered about Largs

Only if GrahamL promises to attend!

I'm away 18th > 22nd July. There may be a day either side of that also. I'll have to look into it...

I'm up for this but would prefer if not Kelpies or Stirling Castle as the Lego family have visited these a lot.

31st July looking good.....

Yes- that would be good for me, also...

Hi Folks!

Thanks for your thoughts. I'm still recovering and hope to be fighting fit again in the next month.

I had started a thread a while ago for a

"trip doon the watter"

I'd suggested Sat 30th July because Sunday down here can be hit or miss.

It would be great to see a troupe of coupes down here as a few of my colleagues and a local garage all think I'm mad for splashing the cash love on mine.

If you guys are up for it I can arrange a pretty decent fish supper...although can't guarantee the weather!

Hello Dee!

Great to hear from you! Thankyou for the PM also.

Good to hear you are on the up- a weight off all our minds, I'm sure.

I 'think' the concept is something during the day and for less than a day- a sort of lunch meet up which is just 'West enough' to incorporate those folk who haven't made it across to other recent meets.

If we can get fish & chips in the afternoon- I'm up for it! But we'll have to round down on a location that's relative central for everyone.

I'll have to look up that Scottish-register thread now and get my map out!

You did indeed Dee, apologies for not having attributed that

Good to hear you sounding positive though and seeing as you'll be around 6 weeks 'in' it would be great to get something off the ground even if it were fairly self-contained or perhaps in two stages - a shorter and a more extended for those available.

You being the best-placed your comments about a Saturday job we should take on board and canvass support for say 30th July as you suggest.

Brilliant Bern

Have made enquiries to see if one of our 'sleeper' members is on board, also...

Watch this space ..!

Hi everyone, very tempted for 30th July. We can leave Kirkwall on Friday night arrive Aberdeen 0700 on Saturday morning by ferry. can you let me know where you are talking about meeting exactly? Need to work out how long a journey from Aberdeen and if we can get back for 17.00 return sailing same day. If not, could be possible to get a ferry on Sunday instead.

Crikey Dianne!

There's NO stopping you guys!!! Keen to get that mileage up from 40k, I see!?

That would be sensational if you could make it down- we might have to try and steer 'slightly' North then...

Would be great if we can make it, at least no mileage added while on the ferry
Will wait to see what you all decide is most convenient for you

Okay!

Watch this space- I will get the atlas out tonight and then we'll have a consensus...

Wow Dianne, you guys have certainly caught the bug!

silver_fox - do you want to have some input?

Excuse me-

Are you contributing to this thread- FROM ITALY??!!

Ehhhh....correcto signor

No coupes spotted on Lake Como yet

This is great! Hope you guys can make it.

Sensational-

You can be 'our man in Italy' for a few days

I think we should start a sub thread, within this thread, for people to list parts they'd like you to bring back from the riches which are undoubtedly available in the local scrapyards

Shouldn't take too much time out of your holiday- Mrs Ed can pass you the tools!?

DG- passenger side rear wing

Looks like you folks are in for a good time. Hope you land up some where nice. I'll keep an eye open for future jaunts & maybe I'll be able to come along. My excitement & enthusiasm were well & truly used up on the West coast tour & as I told Simon, believe it or not I've never done anything like that before. Been all over but not in convoy, & with the other Coops, sounding soft I was trying to keep things together.....

Have a good one you all & I'll watch out for pic's & the craic....
