The way it's looking at the moment, Doncaster will be nearer than I'll get to Arran this year! (Damn! )

How about if I try to make sure there's Arran beer on tap at the Lodge? Would that coax you guys?!?!?!

I don't need coaxing, I'm coming, but hold that thought about the Arran beer on tap at the lodge - it's a good one!

Thanks for the prod Samantha - I must get my backside in gear and book that ferry ticket... 

Do you mean the Arran Ferry? We tried to pre-book it from Down Under but so far have been unable to.

Samantha - do you think it will be a problem if we just rock up to the ferry on the day?

Cheers

Anyone going up from the Cambridge area, with space in a car or for company on the trains?

Would those who've signed up for The Arran Concertina Event mind if I publish their names here, in the hope that will attract others to consider coming along?
The cost, from Friday supper to Sunday lunch, including accommodation will be £60 payable when you get here. Arran is off the south-west Scottish coast, and both Glasgow International and Prestwick airports are quite handy, for those coming from further afield. Cheap flights are available to both of these airports.

Anne and I are coming, though we've chosen (wimps that we are) to stay in the hotel next door.

As far as I remember I have signed up and I do'nt mind that you (or I) publish my name
I really wonder if this will attract anyone

Hello Sam

No problem as far as I can see; if we all answer on the forum we'll eventually self-identify!

It will if you promise to bring your avatar.

And I'm also planning to come. But don't let anybody else on C.net know.

I have no problem being identified. The nice men in blue keep on asking me to do so

I did'nt know you have a crush on my (very big & soft) avatar
For the rest my lips are sealed

[Wrigglefingers]

That's it, if Henrik's coming I'm definitely there, and I've booked my flight despite knowing I'll have to deal with another attack of illness on the day!

[Wrigglefingers]

Was this kind of thing you had in mind, Sam?

Just a thought, but if enough of us are on the 12.30 ferry on the Friday, fancy having a session in the ferry bar?

Excellent Henrik!
The list of definite attendees that I am aware of is as follows:
Henk, Stuart Estell, Pete Dickey, Chris Timson and Anne Gregson, Hilary, Henrik, Jim Lucas, wrigglefingers, Morgana and Mr Morgana (all the way from Australia!), geraghty and Mr geraghty, and me. With 4 wimps in the hotel (Chris and Anne, and the Morganas) there is room for plenty more at the lodge. I have five c.netters still pondering their calendars, too.
