UPDATED 15th October 2008
Date is now fixed as 4th, 5th and 6th September 2009
Band - booked
Disco - booked

Field - booked
Toilet - booked (4 units)
Showers - booked (2 units)
Marquee - booked
Not going to atrrange for any Friday night entertainment other than making sure there is plenty of beer in the pumps !!
Saturday ride out onto the Whisky Trail, taking in a visit to a Distillary and also a Cooperage for those who want to see how the golden nectar is made and stored in the barrels.
Sunday ride out to Deeside, maybe take in the Activity Centre depending on whos willing to pay the extra. If not there are great roads around there and we can always call in to Balmoral to say hello !!
All the 5 rooms in the Hotel are now accounted for;
Rolfy Dave and Jan
Big Harv & missus
Mike & Pam
Richard & Anna
Craigton
If anyone wants more info about B&B's in the area just drop me a lone.
ACTIVITIES
If anyone does want to have a shot at the extra activities, then the rideout planned for the Sunday can take in the Deeside Activity Park.
However the activites are not cheap even with the discount I scraped off them, so if you can let me know if you want to visit there to take part in some of the things available, or just a ride around Deeside so I can book the place in advance because apparantly September is usually busy.
So far a guide to prices are;
Individual Activities
2 hours of kart racing - ?45 each
2 -3 hours of paintballing - ?30 each
Activity Combi Packages
Quad Trekking & Kart Racing 2 hours - ?55 per person
Archery & Target Shooting 1 ? hours -?30 per person
Quad Trekking & Archery 2 hours - ?50 per person
Clay Shooting & 4x4 Driving 2 hours - ?75 per person
Multi Package (3 or 4 act.) Half Day - ?85 per person
Like I say if you all just prefer to have a long ride let me know, its a few quid for any activity but if you do fancy it let me know which ones, you can also look at their website (above) for more info of just send me a message.
Here are a few photos of the site.
Only 11 months to go !!
=====================================================
After this weekends excellent effort from Rolfy, on our 9 hour ride home (yeah, sorry my arse IS sore!!) I did a bit of thinking but I wanted to run it past you lot first.
This is intended as a wee BASH and not intended to be anywhere near the time of Rolfys main BASH.
Now I know we live a long long way from most of you, but we have an excellent park with a pub/hotel on it, a chippy across the road, and a few shops and to be honest it would be an excellent location for a Scottish BASH.
There is also the option of great ride out roads (with little plod, not I don't meant short arsed bobbies either) distilleries aplenty and a local cart track. Of course there would be a lot of sorting out but to be honest I know most of those concerned and so IF (and its a big IF (cos its in CAPITALS)) there were enough interested I would be more than willing to organise things here (its 2 miles from where I live) I just wondered how many on here would fancy it ??
Like I say I know its a long long way from where most of you live and it would have to be worth it for numbers but if you let me know we'll see what happens.
See what happens if you don't have an intercom with yer missus talking to you as you ride for 9 hours, you think of all this bloody stuff and think its good, if not Im sure you'll let me know !
Just type Fyvie into Google Maps to see how far we are away !!!
