Mick

You’ve booked the same hotels as us We’ve not booked food with them either as was waiting to see what everyone else was doing

There’s a nice Chinese and a nice Steakhouse in Inverness. Both have been good quality and service anytime we’ve used them.

That sounds good to me

[Pbondar]

Well if you’re not sick n tired of my company by then if you look and maybe we will join you for that location near Inverness?

Last time we headed about 50 miles down the A9 or so in a small town off the A9

Andy, that sounds great..Premier Inn food gets a bit boring after a while...even after a couple of years by then break.

Any plans / thoughts on what to do / break the journey at the end?

Mick do you have any thoughts / plans ?

Peter/Mick, I haven’t discussed anything about the end with Kathleen yet it will really depend on what time we’re anticipating finishing and what route you guys are taking home. For me I’ll do Inverness to home in around 3 and a bit hours, traffic allowing but would not be adverse to an additional night. Need to check with the boss

Hopefully they’ll still be there post Covid. Both in the centre of town below the castle and easily accessible

No,but if I did,it certainly wouldn't be you,who talks about me behind my back purely because I happened to call you once during Lockdown,as if it was the crime if the century.

Or who takes the huff with me when I did the nc500 meet , because you wanted to "press on" ,as you were getting pissed off waiting about.....
Even though I insisted on waiting for someone who had got lost/broken down,as we didn't know at that point,yet you wanted to press on regardless,and threw a strop when I refused to leave someone stranded in the middle of nowhere!!

Can you imagine the fuss if I had bowed today your wishes to get going,and just left someone stuck with no mobile phone signal?!
Not a nice thing to do,but you didn't care about that,did you Willie.

People in glass houses....

Oh my sincerest apologies, I didn't realise I was meant to not tell anyone you called me, stretch to call that talking behind your back though champ please rest assured I have absolutely no problem telling you that you are acting like a spoiled child and that I think the way you have conducted yourself has been nothing short of a cringe filled embarrassment and, since we are at it, that my advice would be to walk away from this whole debacle and stop piping up with these little sad diatribes that really do paint you in a very unfavourable light.

NC500, you had us all scattered about a tiny little car park that we had entirely grid-locked and were preventing other people from leaving, they were quite understandably getting very annoyed and I and others were having to stand there and apologise on the groups behalf while you gormlessly stood at the top of the hill, I had also repeatedly told you that people were trying to leave but were unable to because we were blocking them and that we could not stay here. Just a wee smidge different than you have portrayed here.

Now I will not be commenting further because this is Meet thread and not a my feefees have been hurt and im upset woe is me wankoff

[Pbondar]

Meanwhile back on the NC500

I've booked the PI Inverness for Wednesday night, The Tongue Hotel for Thursday night and (drum roll) the "Gairloch Hotel 'A Bespoke Hotel'" with SEASIDE VIEW for Friday night.

Mo says she's not coming cause the 35i guys go slowely she may as well take a campervan

So for Sunday night Andy I can buddy up or make my own way back. I'll stop cause I think it will be around 17:00 ish by the time we get back to Inverness.

[Pbondar]

For those trying to follow the main thread...

On the original plan several people put their names down, however times and events have changed and I've not explicitly heard back from most people. So those orginal people have been left on the 'old list' and when /if they re-commit I'll move them to the 'new list'

[Argyll Andy]

Mo says she's not coming cause the 35i guys go slowely she may as well take a campervan

She may be correct, she NOT me, but the 35iS guys won’t have this issue

Two sides to every event....
You made out that I was being a weirdo or that there was some strange ,alteriar motive for me calling you,and you made out to others at Richie's Stirling based meet last September,that I was acting out of turn , because I had the audacity to phone you.

Re My NC 500, and blocking other cars in,only 1 of those cars were wanting to leave,their were no other car parks around in that area, given our location and the nature if the roads(being a bit narrow), and the planned toilet stop was 20 miles further on.
Neither me,or others there, wanted to keep going when we hadn't seen Gary's car for several miles at that point,and didn't know if he was okay or not.
So, being an unplanned stop,it wasn't an ideal location,but it was necessary.
I didn't stand around gormless,as you say, but,I took the decision to send someone else to go and look for them, backtracking until they found them,or until they got a phone signal.
We couldn't move on until that person returned with news of what was happening,and when that happened,we all moved on.
But then,you only ever see things from your side of the fence,and not from anyone elses view point.


I find it Rich that you and others on here slate people constantly for posting anything that disagrees with your tunnel vision outlook on life,and if anyone dares to give an opinion that's different from yours,or theirs,you( and some others), tear them to shreds,and say..."where's the proof", "show me the quote" or, that's just msm lies.

Elvis isn't dead,the Earth is Flat,Trump is great,The SNP are great,Trump hasn't incited riots,black groups cause more trouble than Trump supporters,blah blah blah.

Heaven forbid we don't all agree with your opinions,Wullie.

Bordering on harassment now! Time you gave it up Craig, no one cares!

Bordering on harassment now! Time you gave it up Craig, no one cares!

Nothing different from what Peter did to me when acting like Covid police,and chastising me for continuing to organise meets during the Pandemic.
Which none of us knew back then how long it would go on for,so planning kept going in hope if an early resolution.

Well seeing you never accused Peters actions back last year as Harassment.

[MefiEcosse]

Yawn! Boring!
