Not for that weekend they don't

SCM · 12 Feb 2006 at 12:37

I will bowl as well

At the moment still definitely up for this and I'll bowl as well, however I can't totally commit yet because I'm not totally sure of uni so maybe best not to book onto a lane for me and if I can make it I'll see about playing then

SCM · 12 Feb 2006 at 13:00

Ok so who is arriving on the Friday and what times, as we can arrange a meet up for the early birds etc and the later arrivals can join us somewhere for the weekend to begin.

My train get me to Edinburgh at 13:39 on Friday.
And possibly for the first time in my life I will officially be a southerner

Put me down for bowling too.

233 · 12 Feb 2006 at 18:45

can partners come too

if so 2 for bowling

Feek · 12 Feb 2006 at 19:19

I seem to remember that mine, Garps, MB and H and Burbs flights all arrive about the same time so I guess that's a good place to start - Times are earlier in this thread.

I'm up for bowling.

Mubs - Great if you can make it.. Remember, there's going to be beer!

no bowling, just boozing for me

Feek · 12 Feb 2006 at 23:49

In all the times I've been to Edinburgh, I've never been to the castle, I'd really like to do that if it's practicable or possible. Isn't that where Mons Meg is?

manor · 12 Feb 2006 at 23:51

I'll join you on that Feek.
Apart from wanting to meet all you lot, I have never been to Edinburgh or Scotland before and would like to see some of it.

Yep Mons Meg is in the Castle, if you get there a little before 1 you'll be able to see and hear(maybe wear ear protectors

) the gun going off. I think it costs about £10 to look around the castle but if you've never been before it is worth it.

Windle · 13 Feb 2006 at 11:12

Think i'll pass on the castle, once you've seen it (a few times) it's just another castle

(we have lots)

I shall keep some seats in a pub warm while you guys do the tourist thing.

SCM · 13 Feb 2006 at 13:10

I'm happy to operate as a mini tour guide for the early arrivals, as wouldn't mind another visit to the castle and show off some of the city. Lets see castle, fudge shop, camera obscura then the grassmarket for the tourist pub visits

Also there is a tourist bus you can get a ticket for and you can hop on and off all day at the attractions.

If you (or we if I make it) are going to the castle, a trip to the Scotch Whisky Heritage Centre just a few yards down the hill is well worth it - not a spectacularly fascinating tour but the bar has the best selection of malt whiskies I have ever seen :cool:
