Scotland Meetup

[Benkura]

I thought I'd make this a thread of it's own so people can find it easier.

We plan to have a B meet up in Plean Country park on 15th May then after, a pub lunch. :)

All are welcome but I think I'll need to book a table for lunch, so let me know if you can make it.

If Brian's not working, we'll be there.

Sorry i wont be able to attend guys - it will be my first show free weekend for a while and there are things needing done that i just cant put off any longer - it would have been good to meet up and talk Basenji for a while.

Anyway, am sure you will all have a great time - take some pictures!

[Schouiffy]

I'm there !!

[Nicola]

Looking forward to it. :) Thanks for letting me know.

Hope none of you mind a hooligan of a B x BC gatecrashing your meeting! :eek:;)

[basi]

I'll be there too:D

Must remember the camera!!

[Schouiffy]

Oh yes! Cameras will be brought… maybe some homemade chocolate chip cookies too for after lunch. =)

oh, and is the park accessible by public transit ? We'll taking the tain/bus from Edinburgh.

I'll ask my in-laws about the public transport. They live in Plean near the park.

Hi Lauren

I haven't asked my in laws yet but I've found a bus route and timetable from Edinburgh - Plean. It looks like there's a bus that will get you to Plean Main Road for just before 10am.

[Benkura]

Just let me know if you want to come, especially if you want to stay for the bar lunch, coz I'll have to book a table.

[thunderbird8588]

Yes please Vicki, Howard , myself and of course Malaika will be coming, and we would like to join you for the pub lunch.

I'm just bringing Belle.

ETA I forgot to say my mum is also coming along for the day out.

[Schouiffy]

So exciting!! I will more than likely be bringing the other half, but I'll need him to confirm.

[Nicola]

What time have we to be there at?

[Benkura]

I was thinking about meeting up at 10.00. Those of us who are coming in cars could meet up at Stirling Services at about 9.45 and follow me to the park. Then I thought we could have lunch about 1.00 ish.

Does everyone want a bar lunch? I've been to this pub/restaurant once and it was nice. It's a couple of miles away from the park. I'll need to book at table for lunch. It sounds as though there's going to be quite a collection of us. :)

Please let me know what you all think of times etc.

Vicki

ps Lauren - I'll try finding out about trains to Stirling and maybe I could collect you on the way past??
