Anyone Going To Scotland Want To Meet With Local VTers?
Posted: Tue July 13, 2004 03:18 PM UTC
Is there anyone on there way to Scotland who would like to meet up with other VT people whilst there? ... maybe for a pint, or a day, or even a tour?
I'm new to VT but enjoying meeting like minded people, who share an interest in the "real" Scotland, not just the tourist attractions.
It'd be great to hear from you all.

Hi all,

I will be there around late August and travel Scotland for 2-3 weeks (in economy way).

Hope to meet some VT'ers there.

Yup, on the 7th... a day at the fringe and main sights in Embra. I'm signed up for it but not sure if I need to get back to Berlin before then (coming over for (yet another) wedding on the 31st)...

BTW that goes for everyone - LOL

Oh and Stef - I'm definitely gonna go to Glasgow for the day when I'm in Scotland - so if you can't make it there, we could always do a mini meet in Glasgow.

It would be a pleasure to meet you - in Edinburgh or nearby ... keep in touch. I doubt I will be in Ed for 3 weekends on a row so have some planning to do.
Keeping my options open ... but everyone should meet, every weekend. Name the place ...

LOL.... spending a couple of weekends in Edinburgh... you'd probably be able to spend an entire vacation with the money you'll spend in Edinburgh ;-( I looked at a couple of self-catering apartments and the prices are truly ridiculous!!! I know 3 more or less wheelchair-accessible b&bs in EDI, but even there, last year in June I paid outrageous GBP 40,- per night, just for myself!
