2014 Annual Meet Report - Scotland!

Is it possible to have this made a 'sticky' so that future members can find it easily, to give them an idea of what to expect?

Is it also possible for the mods to move individual postings from this thread to the new thread, rather than have people repost? I thought of copying the postings myself, but some include attachments which I don't think would copy across. These posts start from page 4.

I'm not sure thats totally necessary Sean, we have never done it before and the report is always a mixture of comments, memories, pictures and videos (I will be typing up a full report myself this weekend). What I will do is close the new thread off and then when we have collected everything on the meet report thread I will copy across any individual posts with either video or pictures to the closed thread so that it can act as a quick reference point for all pictures and video. The minute you open a thread like this you get loads of comments against each one and it just becomes another version of the existing meet report otherwise!

I cant wait to see the rest of your videos, thought the first one was great!

I'm okay with that. Just goes to show that I never read any of the previous meet threads

BTW Currently uploading the second one now... and boy, is it slow.

Theres some great threads on meets from the past and indeed the Germany meets, I recommend them for some good 8 based reading!

...sorryyyy
I always wanted to take 8 to Scotland and when we finally got there, I've spent 1/3 of the trip's petrol cost just in the Highlands area

Nice job OP!

That WAS fun - I kind of wish we'd made the two NSW girls (the Vauxhall Corsa ..) honorary forum members for the day, especially when they also turned up at the Power Station tour..

No apology required. I was more than happy to oblige. I just love the roads up there too (and the scenery, of course!). Had to explain to Mrs D that I HAD to get a move on as the guy behind was pushing hard and obviously wanted some fun

Finally managed to get the second part uploaded to YouTube after the third attempt. As before, it's a full version of the stage, and runs to 20 minutes.

I'll have to do a 'Benny Hill' version of these at some stage, with a runtime of about two minutes

Excellent Sean, loving the memories of the route that the video provides - also interesting to see the cruise from the viewpoint of the second group!
