Morning all (but only just!) Managed to get some time off so home supposedly to sort out paperwork but I'll sneak a wee while on here as well. The lady I know at Lochaber News is still on holiday and not due back till Monday. The girl I spoke to only wanted to sell me an advert!! but eventually said if I contacted the news desk they might be interested and might be able to send someone along! An awful lot of 'mights' there for my liking. I'll try again on Monday, meanwhile what do you think - contact the news desk? What if they're not interested? Leave it all till Monday - maybe that's too late? Holidays, pah!!!

Try on Monday, we still have a week. Are you bringing Jane with you ? RDA has booked the hotel from 11 am but I will have to shoot off into Fort William to pick up Lemon ,Daniel and McAnne about 12.30 off the train,Bit of a squeeze in my little car but we will manage..

Would it be any help if I picked them up, Polly, as I'm comming through Ft Wm anyway, save you the 30 miles. Jane

Are you sure, Jane, are you not coming with Woody... Are you sure you WANT to pick them up and a large Pink Bear...??

Hadn't got round to making any arrangements but it makes more sense than you doing the extra driving - and my car is green so there will be no colour clashes with a pink bear to worry about!!

Thanks Jane,will let you know when , no one told me yet but not many trains a day from Glasgow.. Have you met any off them before ? I haven't but know what they look like from photos on here...

Jane in the Highlands

Jane in the Highlands Report 16 Aug 2006 13:19

No, I havnt met any of them before, but I guess a Certain Pink Bear will be a bit of a give away! And surely they couldn't get lost in Fort William station! Will pm you my mobile number as I will be away from home and puter the weekend before.

Sandra B Report 16 Aug 2006 13:22

OK, will send mine as well..Thanks.... Apologies in advance if they get out of order....

Just checked train times, seems to be leaving Glasgow at 8.20 and arriving at Fort William at 12.02.

That would save a load of faffing about for ya Polly if Jane could pick them up........really nice of her to offer and I'm sure she can locate them...........the pink bear or Daniel's top hat will give them away!!!! Also if they manage to get lost in FW station then there's a problem......not!!! So will print off a few name tags for everyone??? Board names or real names??? Has anyone stated on whether they have any dietry requirements??? Will give numbers of people coming to GHH next Thurs/Fri. Polly......haven't got in touch with Ann from W.W. but am on it!!! RDA.x.

Woohoo!!! 1 week tomorrow.........this is gona be fun :-)))) Polly I've not heard back from Ann but I'm sure I will in time for the meet..............has Woody heard back from Lochaber News etc?? Really not mind where we eat in the evening as long as there's an alternate option instead of fish for me!!! How are you doing anyway??? I had rellies up so wasn't on here much over the weekend............just nipped on here in between stripping the beds etc. RDA.x.
