Scotland Meetup


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


  • What time have we to be there at?


  • 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??

    Train times. This will be a lot quicker than the bus.

    Yeah that's a good idea about meeting at the services Vicki. I'll get back to you tomorrow about lunch as need to find out if my mum can stay for it.


  • No probs Jen. Lunch isn't compulsory, I just thought it would be nice to be able to sit down and talk dog without being pulled on a lead LOL :D

    Sounds good to me, Vicki. BUT I will have to give myself extra time to get lost…..it's the norm with me! :eek:

    I have one question though, what if it's very warm? Are the dogs allowed in the pub or can we sit outside? I'm paranoid about dogs in warm cars as I'm sure you'll understand.


  • I would doubt very much if it'll be warm. :) This is Scotland after all!

    There's no outside seating. We managed to park just outside the door last time.

    I can always try to find somewhere else with outside seating but won't be able to say whether it'll be any good food wise etc.


  • Nah, I'm sure it'll be fine. It won't be that warm I wouldn't imagine. It's really quite cold tonight!


  • 9.45 am at the services will be fine for us, i think it will take approx 3 hours.


  • That's not bad going Shelley. It'll take me almost 2 hours! At least you've got motorways all the way.

    I'm really looking forward to letting Belle have a run with Malaika :)

    It's strange to think it will only take us one more hour to get there than you.
    Are you just bringing Belle ?
    I'm sure it's going to be a very special day.


  • Yes, I'm going to take Belle and Chance. Nicola has offered to be the guardian of Trouper for the day so he may come too.

  • We won't manage it i'm afraid Vicky. I'm sure you will all have a fab day though!

    That's a pity Theresa:( Will see you at SKC instead:D


  • We will be there. Me and the other half will be there by train.. It would be wonderful Vicki if you could pick us up. I absolutely can't wait!!


  • No Probs Lauren. Just let me know which train you will be on.

    Go to my website and you can contact me privately through my email. I'll give you my mobile number in case you have problems.


  • Yes Jenny, see you at the SKC.

    Theresa x


  • Ok. Please can you let me know how many for lunch so I can book a table.

    Anyone interested & available to meet this weekend? Weather looks best tomorrow (Fri) or Sat. Also looking like the weather will be good next Fri & Sat. I'm willing to meet at any of the parks we have been considering on this thread (West Chester, Phoenixville or Oaks) Also, if you're interested, Wagsworth does a FREE Saturday stay & play (which just means you stay with your dog while they play - rather than dropping off for day care). Chase had an unexpected "sleepover" there Monday night - brought him there to play just for the afternoon & then couldn't get back because the roads were so bad from that unexpected storm. We missed him, but he LOVES it there - a treat for him & a little break from him for our sweet little (neurotic) border collie! Cindy
  • When is the next NY meetup???
