Just a thought but Plockton is the one that we are not staying overnight at and I'd have to check that our two wee dogs are welcome before I can confirm that before booking lunch. We have checked prior to booking our own accommodation and that okay. Can we make up a detail list of lunch stops and places were visiting between hotels?

Ah, OK, thanks, wasn't sure if it would all be as far North as that. I sometimes run the coupe up to Aberfoyle and was thinking of continuing up to Mhor 84 next time.

Lego Unregistered L	So as not to make this thread even longer and more confusing As far as the Itinary for the trip is concerned, the start is; This Thursday at 1.30 for Lunch at Priory Hotel The Square, Beauly, IV4 7BX, Let's just keep it to that just now and we can discuss the the rest of the trip Itinary over lunch on Thursday when we are all together. If people want to meet up before that then organise it via PM message as it just causes confusion if you post it in the thread. Last edited by Lego; 13/06/2016 21:22.

Did however manage to install a new bracket to the back of my boost gauge. Good result! Quote make that 3 gluten intolerant Was that for me Brian? Re Plockton dinner?
