I'm so envious of you all, would love to meet you in Glasgow, but unfortunately wouldn't be a cheap weekend for me with travelling etc.

I'll just look forward to seeing your photos instead ;)

Hi everyone,

It sounds ok to me having a meal together.  Last year was great but it would have been nice to eat with everyone and get to know people a bit better.

Hi all

meal sounds excellent and maybe a wee visit to a pub or two on Byers Road ?

Not done that for a very long time!

Hi all,
I've been considering evening meal idea.

Sussed out a few places today with my daughter.  Couple of nice places around the Botanics.  All happy to cater for a large group even although it's a Saturday - they just need notice.

I've been thinking though (ouch!).  Most folk that are booking into hotels are probably paying for the evening meal in their bill anyway?  Correct me if I'm wrong.

How about an organised Sunday lunch - if nothing else, aspin can be there!  ;D

I'm just throwing this in as another idea.

Sybil is on holiday so we can't make a decision.  However, it would be nice to get opinions for her return.

Dave

Share transport, bring a sleeping bag and crash at my place - open invite.  I've already got a cheap Welsh student staying for the weekend (no names mentioned).

I'm glad my last comment didn't kill the thread!
And I'm only a bit Welsh... :D lol

I think the idea of the Sunday lunch is great. Nice relaxing time to sit down and have a good chat. Not long to go now!

Hi Dave

I am booked in at the Travel Lodge so have not booked an evening meal so Saturday suits me ok.
