Good food, good company from friends old and new and an innovative use for a washing machine - what more could we have asked for
Even the weather gods were smiling down on us
Many thanks to Margaret and Angus for making it all happen
Thanks Chris for your kind words, and for your help - cooking, driving & outside covered space. Hope to see you again next year.
Steve - I will PM re visiting, but here is a very quick report - much as described before the event. 9 vans in total from 3 different forums, and as many pets as there were vans (if not more)
The first few vans arrive with us on Thursday. As the field was a bit wet, & we were concerned about further rain, we used the nursery instead. A little cramped by Friday night, but everyone seemed happy.
Friday night was BBQ night and everyone contributed and there was, in the end no shortage of charcoal. We had a working party in the afternoon to demolish and old washing machine and the drum was filled with bits of pallet and used to cook Chris's Feta parcels and kebabs amongst other things.
On Saturday evening 10 of us went for a meal to the Dores Inn on on Loch Ness and by Sunday night only 2 vans were left.
The company was good with characters as different as the vans they were in and the activities they took part in during the day and I believe that everyone had a good time - although you would have to ask them
The weather was surprisingly good, with little rain during the days and much warmer and sunnier than expected.
All in all our fourth informal meet has confirmed that we will have a gathering and a mini meet again next year Hope you can make one of them
Will try to get some pictures up in the next few days, but if I don't it is because I am busy preparing for my daughter

Hi all,
Thanks to Margaret and Angus for laying on the meet.
We could only stay the first two nights but enjoyed our short time there.
Bit of fun being involved in stripping down washing machine with minimal toolkit. Managed to remove the security screws using a combination of my bicycle allen keys and mole grips and the obligatory hammer. No-one was hurt during the making of this bbq.
The drum worked rather well as a barbecue/space heater.
Brin hill still remains a challenge yet to conquer but lovely scenery all around with loads of nice walks.
Look forward to the next one and hoping to stay longer.
Had a good run to Dumfries on Saturday and now in Gretna.
Cheers,
Alan and Lesley (and Speed the cat)

Thanks Alan, Lesley and Speed
We look forward to playing Cubs (or was it brownies?) next time.
I hope you got home safely, if that was where you were going. I am assuming that it was you who collected the pots we put aside for you.
See you again soon
Margaret

Sent you a PM earlier saying we collected the pots yesterday on our way back from Gretna.
Kubb (Scandinavian - cross between boules and horse shoe) set had its first outing at Gretna and went down quite well. Rules take a bit of figuring out.
Cheers,
Alan and Lesley
