The next "official" event will be a trip up to the drovers up at loch lomond.
most of you monkeys have been there before so you know the script. there will be a bus going up about lunch time on the sat, and returning in the afternoon on the sunday. there is a deposit for the bus, £10. if you can sort this out by the 16th of may it would give me a better idea of numbers.
you can stay in the drovers or the stagger inn over the road. if you are up for fighting the midgies, you can Rambo it and camp with the rest of us. if you want to sleep in a bed you will have to sort it yourself. they both have there own web sites. the campers just pay when you get there.
this is not a sausage fest, the WAGS are more than welcome.
outing number 2, off and running............

Sounds like a decent wee day/night out. I will have to review the finances as I have the Austria tour to subsidise and recover from the week before that. I would definately be up for Rambo-ing it though. None of this comfy-bed-gay sh1te!!
I've added it to the forum calendar, (see forum menu bar) which everyone can access and also add events you think are important.
Gnasher. This trip sounds good to me and the boys,what is the name of the campsite as I might take my motorhome up ( no rambo-ing it for me webmaster!) and will have to book it in as the sites are usually busy.
i dont know what the site is called. its a stones throw past the drovers on the right. i doubt you will need to book in. it is a massive field. ive never seen it half full. some of the dole collectors are away on the friday but i am heading up on saturday morning to get them up. cheers

The campsite is the Beinglas Farm Campsite , but it does not allow motor homes or caravans only tents and trailer tents, but the drovers has got a big car park and grounds at the rear of the pub where you could park up for the night , loads of people kip up for the night in there cars
aye. remember when gazza thought it was one of those dogging sites and went down for a sniff about. he was caught with a handfull of meat and two veg peeking into one of the campervans.
see ya thursday pal, must go my beer is getting warm.
ghash in lanzarote.....out

thanks for info, I have spoken to the staff at the site and because my camper van is only small they will allow me to use the site,however if anyone is thinking about parking up and sleeping in their cars at the drovers car park the new management will not allow this anymore as the police have informed them that anyone sleeping in their cars or camper vans outwith a designated site are liable to face charges for drink driving because although you may not be sleeping in the drivers seat you can still be prosecuted. How true is it I do not think it is worth taking the chance
That is true about sleeping in cars etc, it is the law that you can be done if drunk . None of us that are going up are going to sleep in cars anyway most of us are camping and a few are staying in the drovers. There will still be a lot of people that stay over at the drovers car park, and I think that the owner will tell you what he told you because he will not wont his car park turned in too a campsite plus he has rooms to rent .
So what's the final count of footsoldiers/soldierettes going to Loch Lomond Gnash? It seems we are going to be sprinkled around the country side like scattered sheep. Some of us "Big Hunting, Knife wielding, Bad Ass Bros" rambo-ing it in tents while some "Blouse wearing, HandBag wielding, gymslips" are playing it safe and sleeping in vans, caravans and b&b's whilst being tucked up in beds by their mums.
PS. I'm sticking to the beers this time. Bob Marley is on his own!!
there are 2 squadrons being deployed for this trip!
the first led by zico gilmour are away on the friday. he will have roughly 10-15 troops at his disposal. his primary objective is to set up base camp and get pished. the second squad led by myself will set of on satuday morning armed to the teeth with refreshments. we will meet them on the banks of the loch at appoximatly 12. there is a solid 6 in my troop. two cars.
P.S. big alan is coming so i hope some b@stard tries it!!!

This has to be the statement of all statements when a bit of rain stopped any of the so called big hunting knife wielding bad ass bros from bothering to come up to Loch Lomond
On behalf of the guys who did make the effort to go to this "official trip" we would like to thank everyone involved in allowing us to go on your wee trip and we hope that your mums tucked you up nice and tightly
