Big Thankyou!

Having just got back from another Great 10 days and nearly 500 miles with the usuall "A team"! Ribbing in Oban...and surrounding areas!
I'm sure the other Guys would like to join Myself and Karen in thanking everyone we met for thier help input and support!..
Gordy P for helping me with storing the Car ect ....was a big pluss Thankyou Mate!
Alan on the Forum for taking the time to come over and steering us to a Great Destination for lunch!...not to mention the Bottle of Highland Park!
And not forgetting of course Douglas who always comes up Trumps for us!..with great input as usuall...and THIS time over 100 fresh Scallops...and the Single Malt to help them on thier way!
Pluss all the others that we met,old and new on the trip....The west coast is a special place with very helpful and generous residents!
Thankyou!..it really is the People that make it so special!

Nice to see you all again.

Thanks for the seat Matt, my apologies for not driving your boat with your "enthusiasm"! Thoroughly enjoyable all the same.

Big thanks from us two too. A bad day on the west coast is better than a great day landlocked in Oldham 👍😄
