My step-father, John Alexander Maclean of Glenbernisdale, Skeabost, Isle of Skye, passed on early this morning. The service will be held on Saturday morning. I'm unable to attend this event but Ben Clark will take over co-ordinating the meet. Everything else will go ahead as planned. Please remember that each person will be responsible for their own sleeping/food provisions although there may be some shared cooking as the situation allows. There will no longer be a central tent but Jason Sears has offered to bring a parachute canopy to provide some cover. I'll tag a Gmap with the location of the entrance to the birch wood and post it here later today.
There will be a boat to provide the option of making camp on the central island if all agree. The island is a truly special place. A rare jewel of untouched mixed deciduous wood land. I hope all those committed will still attend and that I'll meet some or all of you at the next meet in late November.
Ben Clark can be contacted directly via FB or on 07552200981.
Go peacefully, John. A true man cut from the glen. Life is precious. When those we love pass on, all we can do is live.
