Title: Will Be Traversing Scotland in June...
Post by: locustsofdeath! on 18 April, 2011, 11:04:44 PM
...staying mainly in Aberdeenshire (Inverbervie) and a few nights in Inverness. Any chance of a get together with any of the forum's Scotsmen? I will buy a pint for each of you (if that doesn't get a Scotsman to show...).

That's a bit of hike from where we are but, stick some rough dates, times and locations up and we'll see who can make it.

Yep, a real hike (a couple of hours from Glasgow or Edinburgh). If you are anywhere near civilization* though...

And is it business or pleasure that brings you to Midge-ville?

Visiting old family friends. I lived in Aberdeenshire for little more than six years, so I want to catch up one last time before heading home. I think we'll be in Aberdeenshire the second week of June and up by Inverness the following week.

Well, if you should happen to swing by Aberdeen, old chap, I'll get the drinks in. :)

If we're about on the dates you're up, I think we can manage it!

I'd be up for a pint, or any amount thereof, in Aberdeen if you get something sorted.

Be sure to visit to famous 'bervie chipper!  :D

Aye, lived in Bervie for six years! Been there many a time!!!

I've not heard back from Dog Deever in a little while, but I am hoping to catch him! As soon as we get firm dates, I'll post 'em - though I'm sure I'll see many of you at Bristol.
