RC Meet in Scotland - 2007?

[Arranroots]

So 5 of us so far - Arranroots did say  she was interested but she's hiding in a closet somewhere 

Note to self: don't tell Gadget anything you don't want disclosed on the boards later!

 

Having a fraught week here, all my machinery is packing up at once.  My own reseach would be Black Isle mainly, but happy to do anywhere - family permitting!

Go on Arranroots - I have very beady eyes 

I was trying to provoke a response and it worked 

You'd love it up here - who knows, next year you'll have lots of time.

Oh I know I love it - second home! (not literally, but that would be nice)

Shame the forebears don't still have their hotel in R&C...

Crofting and Highland Clearances sound interesting Gadget as does Whisky distilleries.

My mum and dad visited one 2 years ago and bought home whisky for my brother and brother in law but none for Pete because he doesn't drink it!  What about me

I'd be interested, lovely part of the county, would have to be later in the year for me though, as am off to Australia in May/June to visit parents-in-law for their 50th wedding anniversary - hoping to get more done on their family history before then

Great idea Gadget  I'm just a hop, skip and jump away from either Inverness or Glasgow/ Edinburgh so I'm definately interested. I've McRae's in my tree from Inverness shire and R&C so would love to have a look round the area...have been meaning to for a while.

Hi  Elaine

Nice to hear from you. Long time no speak - Aberdeen, aren't you 

I think we're getting a mini-bus load already (plus Keith  )

Looking good

Not to dampen your enthusiasm Gadget, but bear in mind that there is also a projected Dublin Meet in 2007.  Might be an idea to coordinate with that?

 

[Gadget]

Yes - I'd noticed that - will check all the dates out. Could be a bit like the Manchester/Hasting meets this year.

Who knows, I might get to both - I've been to Ireland twice this year - cheap flights to Dublin and Belfast 

Thanks for raising it.

(PS - Dublin's very expensive    - only joking, we had a great time there)
