Re: Scottish meet up
Hi Paul and Cheryl
Welcome to the site, you'll soon find its like a cross between the Samaritans, an Encyclopedia, and the Wich magazine all rolled in to one ! Think I could have actually turned completly grey and eaten my fingers never mind just the nails if it hadn't been for some of the fab folks on here.
Where are you thinking about heading? We are off to Perth hopefully by May 08.
We will be at the meet and my wee one (3yrs) will be chuffed to know there are going to be some little ones there.The eldest (11yrs) hopefully wont have a football match that weekend and should be there too. Any kids going around that age group?

Thanks for the welcome. It looks as though we will have the time off work to go to the meet so we are looking forward to meeting everyone. Not sure we'll last till midnight with the young ones but we'll give it a good go!!
Cheers for now, Paul & Cheryl
