Do you know anywhere good?

 

[fred gordon]

Sounds good to me. Might manage so keep me posted please

 

[locum76]

[Eric_Methven]

[scottishwolf]

I'd definatley be up for that, any date suits me

Any ideas on location?

 

[Thorfinn]

Right folks, lets here your ideas. Where do you wanna go? Tossachs, Highland, Galloway. What about that place that they went over the yule new year time? Theres plenty of places, it's just picking the place. Don't be shy. I could possibley get a scout camp, but it might cost some money. Would you want to pay?

 

[Eric_Methven]

I love Achray, and it's likely to be available given the time of year.

Eric

 

[gregorach]

I'm interested...

 

[locum76]

achray is a good site and easily accessible.

 

[warthog1981]

it might still be very silty as it has been flooded recently

 

[stuart f]

it might still be very silty as it has been flooded recently

Never mind we could still have mud baths,good for the skin apparently

I,ll mmm! eeh get me coat......

 

[locum76]

i dunno what the craic is regards camping - but tentsmuir forest might be worth a look. and also glen doll (near kirriemuir). thorfinn, do you know the campsite at craggan near comrie?

 

[Thorfinn]

Comrie? Wheres it near? I've just been through some forests in and arund scotland and camped in the middle of no where. So i don't really know any real camp sites. But i'll try anything.

Achray sounds good. Lets here some more places. And at the moment this is the only place i know.

But lets here more.

I'll give us all till the end of the month to decide

p.s. does anyone have a contact for Achray?

 

[bushyboo]

Hi thorfinn
try pm magikelly i think it was him that arranged the last meet at achray

 

[MagiKelly]

Achray is usually shut till Easter but we may be able to still get access. There are other FC sites near Aberfoyle as well but they would not have the same canoe access.

 

[Thorfinn]

Thats something i didn't think of, CANOES. we should take this into consideration too.
I don't actually have a canoe but have always wanted to give it a try.

But anyway i'll give it till the end of the month for more ideas.

 

[EdS]

I'm hoping to go upto Perthshire for a week in March - depending on the date I could extend my stay (mind you I've got some bere to drink in Aberdeen as well).
