I'm getting very excited about this!
When I was 8 years old, my parents took us on a European holiday (Kombi camper and all) - I still have a book I bought on that trip, inscribed in 8-year-old scrawl on the flyleaf "Bought at Stirling Castle"

We camped there, or somewhere very nearby, and there was a bookshop and I bought this book because it was about horses, and I was pony-mad.
I hope the meet happens and that our trip happens....still interested in checking out a distillery or two at some stage? You know, for family research purposes and all that...
