Had a weekend with a few of the guys from the Scotch Corner group, what a weekend! I dare say this thread will be the start of a good few stories and lots of pics. It was a fantastic weekend and I'll extend my thanks once again to all those who made it possible.... You know who you are lol!

Anyway took lots of pics and I'm sure the other guys did the same so more pics to follow.

Glad to see you had a good time lads, I wanted to be there, had the full 'kitchen pass' but as it's her birthday today I thought it would be a bit bad form. Hopefully next time :)

Some great pic guys , i have camped in many glens over the years and glen etive has to way up on my list of best camps.

I would rather be there in the winter in the rain and snow than in the summer with the hundreds of people and miges.
