[size=14]Hello Guys,
Well I Think it's about time we started a new thread about the Next Meeting of the Jockular Omegas.
How's about Easter Monday, 9th April 07 on the Bonnie, Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond and make a day of it and have a BBQ, I was thinking about Rowerdannen at the base of Ben Lomond it's a Great Location and it's on the quieter east side of the loch and the road ends there so no through traffic :)
Tell me what you think!!!!!!!![/size]
-
You know it's gonna rain on that day now :D
-
BTW is Easter Monday a bank holiday in Scotland? I'm a student so I can take it off regardless but just curious as to the choice of that day.

The reason I choice this date was the fact that it was a bank holiday, as the last time we tryed to organise a date people where working, so I chose a bank holiday to maximise attendence :)
There is a great picnic area there right next to the car park :y
-
Easter Monday sounds good!
-
LOL, here we go again, I'd better free up some disk space for this epic... ;D

Aye, You had better make some space it's at least another 7 weeks away yet ;D ;D

Does the location sound OK to :)
-
Location is fine, not been round that way for AGES so why not?
May be a trek for some others, though...
You fancy a whisky tour?
Glenturret Distillery location (http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?pc=PH74HA&GridE=&GridN=&scale=50000&title=thanks+to+scotchwhisky.net&cat=h&mapsize=small)
Its quite central(ish)...
If partners were attending, could be left wandering the glass factory type places in Crieff.

Sorry chaps, but I think that is getting a wee bit too far away for me! :'(
That must be at least another hour past Stirling, I think, and that means around 8 hours driving in total, probably more knowing the frigging tourists on the A9 on bank holidays. >:(
For your next one after this try somewhere around Perth, its a more central location for everyone! ;)
Have fun boys (& girls).

Come on, I've just checked autoroute and it's 156 miles from Inverness to Rowardennan 2hr 50 mins
You Know It Makes SENSE :y

Jim,
I'm going to have to disagree with you mate. It takes me 2.5 hours to get to Stirling on a good day, 3 hours to glasgae. :-[
With that being Easter bank holiday weekend, the roads are going to be busier anyway. :(
Remember dude, my roads up here only have 1 lane going either way, mostly. :'( :'(

There are better places to party, but it's all about how you do it ;) Got a birthday party to go to this Sat night woohoo should be fun... right i'm going off-topic (again)

[size=14]Good Man!!
So how many other Jock's are coming to the Meet,
Please Let me know if you think the date or location is OK or if you think it should be another time or place, I'm trying to make it as easy for the most people to come, so please let me know your thought's.
Cheers Jim :y[/size]
-
Hello,
Please let me know if this is a go'er or another date or another location would suit cheers :y
-
Its a no for me Jim :'( :'(
Dates okay, but as said before it's too far.
I am not going to suggest a change of location, just to suit me.
Have fun, and I maybe be up for the next one, assuming I'm still a barge owner then.
Take care.

Will you need filters for all that oil? If so, may be worth double checking if you have the older spin on type, or newer paper element type...

Nope, filters not required thanks. Got a stock in already of the spin ons plus the oil will do the 4 cars, two bikes and the air compressor in the family, not just meega... :y

I'm not gonna say whether I'm going or not. Being a bank holiday, I'll be off work, but I'm not sure what's happening yet.
Last time I said I'll go a wee run to Loch Lomond I ended up getting there...and going right past it all the way to Oban :D Fantastic roads there, perfect surface, only one flaw where a corner had slightly subsided. Great run ;)
-
Lawman - its worth the run, even if only for a stop off for a slash and dash pitstop, a burger and a can of juice en route to Oban again!
Go on, you know it makes sense!! ;D ;D

Hello,
Well the road on the east side of Loch Lomond ends at Rowerdannen so there is no chance of going to far. Head for Drymen then Balmaha then follow the signs for Rowerdannen, then look for a shed load of Omega Owners Eating Burger's Easy :y

Remember peeps to put the clocks forward 1 hour this weekend, we do not want any one arriving when all the burgers have been eaten. :'( :'( ;D ;D

Yeh I think I'll make this one... still undecided on which of the 2 cars and 2 bikes I'll take :P Wait and see what the weather's like before deciding. I should really take the meega regardless, seeing as it's a meega meet :D

Firstly, I do not (thankfully) own a caravan >:(
Secondly, I wouldn't ruin our lovely Rover 25 by sticking a shin breaker on it >:(
Seriously, no way I could make it that far for such a short time (busy before and after easter).
Secretly hoping to be able to make the lake district meet if it goes ahead, would be great to meet you northerners :)

Ach!!
I'm off visiting over the weekend to a wee place down south called Rowthenstal. >:(
I'll be coming back home on the Monday morning, so i don't think i'll be there for mid-day.
I may just have to be fashionably late....again.
Sometime in the afternoon, if you lot will still be around, and you keep me a burger or six, i may just make an appearance. :y

Not much in the way of burgers available today (watch this space, will do some more rooting around) but did manage to get some lamb burgers. And venison sausages with red wine and garlic. And Buffalo (yep, you read it right) sausages with Guinness.
Will go to a butcher I know and get the pork and apple burgers as well as some straight beefburgers for the traditionalists among you..... ;)

Was gonna try to change plans to meet you all there but now car will be spending the day in the garage getting cat section of the exhaust fitted along with new tyres and tracking fixed.
if i'm out in time and able to zip along i will do, but looks unlikely, will just need to wait for the next time.
