Gert’s Funeral

[AndyT]

I'm flying in from offshore on the Wednesday morning but have to fly back out again early the following day, (Payback time for my trip to Jockgrim). I'm unsure if I will be there on my bike or in the car it all depends on what time the chopper gets into the heliport.

regards

AndyT

Will be there.

How many are riding on the day?
I ask because I don't have a car and would not like to upset anyone by being on the bike.

More bikes the better

Ignore Gerry he's lost his eyebrow strimmer

I'll be heading over from Inverness - pm me if you want to meet up

+1

I'll be in the High Court so sadly won't make it....all my thoughts will be with you folks....

Hope you manage to get probation at least.

Myself and Fruitcake will be staying in Aberdeen on Tuesday night and the Kintore Arms Wednesday.

See you all there.

I just wish we were meeting for some- any- other reason.

Waterloo - I'm riding straight from work. I know when I've to be in Inverurie by, but don't know when work will finish , so a meet up is off, but thanks for the offer.

I'm up on the bike on Wednesday. Will head for a bacon roll at the social club so +1 on that number.

Me and neil23 were talking at GS'ing Ireland. What's the sop for riding gear? I'm assuming its ok and we're not doing the route in suits? Daft question but I don't want to get this wrong.

Time to get changed for the service etc?

 

[Klanky]

I'm coming down from JOG.
I'll be at Woodys in Inversnecky for brekky about 8-ish if anyone's around from that area.
Nothing set in stone, we either hit or miss, no worries.

Bike gear and a Das Dug t-shirt as far as I know

There no are facilities to change at the cremetorium.

With the amount of bikes intending in attending we will not be out of place.

Anette has invited us back to their house (Gert liked a party and she felt it was most appropriate we went back there)

I plan on changing into troosers then.

 

[gerarddwatts]

so any wild guesses as to numbers at the social club 11.30-12.30--just to help them??

Some folk (me included) are heading home after the service on Wednesday so I was going to suggest a joint actual (for those still up there) and virtual (for those unable to attend or who're now back home) toast to Gert at 19:00 hrs on Wednesday.

Edit: Change of time. See posts below

 

[raboomdea]

Ill make sure i have a dram ready for 1900hrs...

That makes sense Bhud and although I never had the good fortune to meet Gert I will raise a glass at 20:10, though it will only be water, as I am on an ASN training course in Shotts that doesn't finish until 21:30.

Good idea a nip of one of Scotlands finest will be drank at the appropriate time.
