We're interested Euan. No plans to go to MM yet, we probably wouldn't do the full 3 days but would tag along for a day or two, health permitting

The weather isn't the problem in October Mark ( I have been swimming in the sea off a boat in October before in the highlands), rather the lack of daylight - the distances can be extensive, and deer me at dusk and in the dark up there (potential for "group buy" on CC's list ).

September is a relatively quiet period at work for me, plus the schools have gone back, and half terms haven't started yet - ideal for uninterrupted .

It'll only possibly be the same weekend as MM if no-one from England is interested in coming for whatever reason - it is a long way (Inverness is a 6 hour drive from Blurtermeet for example).

Can I just say this behaviour isn't indicitive of scots in general. Jesus Euan, they scramble helicopters if anyone is in that water for more than 10 minutes!

The other Director in Quorum (my company) has been known to kayak round Bass Rock at Midnight though

I take it back, Scottish people are retarted

Euan,

Count me in for this one. I think the only big event down South I will be able to attend this year will be JAE.
