Just putting feelers out for a possible meet for Hogmany at Comrie Croft. We had an excellent one there a couple of years ago...and last years was cancelled due to the severe weather.

I'm really cheesed off I can't manage the meet there in November as away in London at a Christmas show for work...hence trying to get something organised for the New Year.

The hall at Comrie is already booked out for Hogmanay but not sure if we'd have needed it anyway.

Has anyone got a different venue that could be used? Can't remember where last years was meant to be but that could be a possibility...maybe whoever was organising that place could check and get back to me as a possible venue.

Any ideas/suggestions appreciated.

You must be mad, I heard a rumour that the last New year bash at Comrie was so bad someone tried to hack his own leg off to get an ambulance out of it.

Ach it was only -12 :) and a bit of snow..

Wiston is easily got to from all airts and not too disimilar from the croft.

Don't think there's a problem with dogs under control etc..(sheep in nearby fields though).

Kids are ok of course.

Here's the web site..

Yeh that was 2 years ago...I remember the screams through the woods.

I'm happy for Wiston...don't know much about the place but from what I hear a good venue.

Barn Owl...are you happy to look into it again for this year? If not let me know who to speak to and I'll call to see if OK for us to pitch up.
