David-hrv Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Hi Geoffrey, I'm planning to meet you at Dunnottar also, same as Campbell, and then join in until after Cairngorm. I was also thinking of meeting you at Inverness railway station on the previous Saturday morning, 4th June and joining in until after Ullapool if that's OK. If so, what time do you have to be at the station for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Taylor Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Hi early start from Killin to Dunotter is fine by me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted May 27, 2016 Author Share Posted May 27, 2016 Had some great news. I have been speaking with friends, Will Brix and Jonathan Wilson, who both work for Bacardi and are aware of our Scotland trip. They have organised for six free tickets for us to attend the John Dewar's Whisky distillery in Aberfeldy. The invitation at present is for Tuesday 7th June, but this will affect our trip to Durness Castle. I have asked Jonathan to confirm if we can attend on Wednesday 8th of June at 10.00am. The tour will last about 1.5 hours. I will update further once I hear back from Jonathan. FANTASTIC NEWS. We can go on Wednesday the 8th at 10.00.am to visit the distillery thanks to my friends. I will put up a separate post as I have tickets for 6 people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted May 28, 2016 Author Share Posted May 28, 2016 I have been checking the weather forecast every day for the past few days. At the moment the days we are in Glencoe, Skye and Durness the forecast is saying. You have no idea how happy I am right at this moment in time. I know it can all change but last year it was saying. for every day and it was still the best holiday I had ever had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
