Yeah, then you just get midges!
But anyway, midges aside. MEEEE!
July/ August better for me though. But not the weekend of 7th July cos I shall be in a hot and dusty field laughing at men in armour complaining about it being hot when they chose to wear several layers of wool and some shiny metal plates. Fools.

ooooooooh....
Can we go and see the Loch Ness monster? Can we? Can we?
Scottish invasion sounds like a great plan to me. There's quite a lot happening already in the summer, so I'll have to see how money and time off work goes.
Fingers & toes crossed I'll be able to make it!

Sunbird, how can you invade scotland if you already live there?
I quite fancy a trek northwards. Could be a laff.

I suppose we could do Ness, great backdrop and all, hmmm, I am looking at places today, was thinking of Doonhill Homestead (near Dunbar) or Hanging Rock Caves (Near North Berwick) if the favourite vote is the Highlands then it'll need to be relatively easy to get to and away from rangers eyes lol
somewhere like Cullerie Stone Circle but I'm sure there's an area around the Nessies lair

Not 7th July.
Otherwise need to check when school goes back cos would be pants having to go to work on the Monday!
If youth hostels were an option this place is really cool, a bit north of Inverness. They do pretty good dinners too!

Hey Kat
OK, i like the look of it, but I was thinking more a cmaping event, plus a lot of places like that are no fire policy
But I'll look into prices and whether we can have fire there anyway in case people want cosy To you who has been accessing my online accounts, changing my login details, locations and posting about me, realise, you are not worth revenge, you are not worth my attention, you are nothing, and that is all you ever will be.

I think I can make most, but leave the Ueber-one and anything around the EJC out
Maybe middle/end of August would be best? "vices are like genitals - most are ugly to behold, and yet we find that our own are dear to us."

Inverness sounds good to me
Are there any good campsites around, Tinkles, and how tolerant are people for fire? "vices are like genitals - most are ugly to behold, and yet we find that our own are dear to us."

https://www.invernesscaravanpark.com/caravan_park_campsite_inverness.htm
there's the main campsite that i know about in town, well a mile from the centre anyway.
if you enlarge the map on this site, you'll see the bught playing fields where I'm sure you'll be allowed fire as this is where they hold the annual fireworks display (in which i did my thing with 10,000 spectators whoohoo lol)
If ya get a telling off, just walk across to the other side of the river to the ness islands - its pretty secluded there, plus me and nx got away with spinning there saturday lol
