I fechin hope so, or it'll be a lonely piss up

I am planning to head down Sunday. Gonna be stayin' overnight at Newtongrange way and heading from there.

I forgot it was on as it clashes with the 3 peaks piss up but if you cant get down to that I can thoroughly recomend Lelso, its a great venue, great facilities and a marvbelous part of the world.

There used to be a big GS presence there but sadly it seems to have become out of favour.

Have Fun

Wish I'd known.

Me and Johnny could have attended Kelso. We're no' banned from there

 

[Chaz]

Well if anyone else ends up going i'll be on the only GS there by the looks of it so give me a nod

I am meeting a mate at Fordon Services at 8.45 on Sunday morning if anyone wants to join us

 

[Wicker]

Don't bother with Kelso. You'll not miss much. Usual crap for sale on the trade stands and Highland games in the main arena onyack

 

[~Stef~]

Been twice, wouldnt bother again.

 

[freeloader]

I was there today, hadn't been before.

Quite enjoyed it, weather was good, met a mate I hadn't seen for a while, who bought me an ice cream.

Also met Nick Saunders, who signed a copy of Parallel World for me. Had to pay for that though.

Anyone see the band that were on last night? "Sourmash" or something - any good?


Limehouse Lizzy, last year were brilliant - far better than the current incarnation of Thin Lizzy, who are one death away from being a crap tribute band.

I gave up on his books as I found him just to be a scrounging wee bastard that thinks the world owes him a living

He should be heading your way soon - he's doing a "round the UK coast" trip now.

Suppose there might be a book about it eventually...

I agree, met him at the bike show this year and what a fekin plonk! (below) On the plus side I met Sam Manicom...a totaly unasuming all round good guy is Sam, and his books are better as well!!

Some time ago, I was told by someone in the motorcycle industry the reason Sanders stopped using Triumphs for his trip was that Triumph America had withdrawn any and all support. Because there had been so many complaints from people paying to go on his trips.
