Don't you guys strip Anderson's of all the bargains (or the pubs of all the red wine!) before we get a look-in!!

1) the weather forcasts are wrong when it comes to good weather, so I hope they are also wrong... Besides, forecasts a week in advance are t best a qualified guess.
2) if there are no bargains left at Anderson's, the early arrivers are sure to put on a private showing at the Ferintosh early Saturday.
3) the red whine, eh wine, in Dumfries is safe from Patrick and Anne-Lise
4) looking forward to seeing you in Dumfries

I don't know how long it will take to drive from the airport (Maybe someone can tell me?) Seee you all there

**cessna152towser** · 21st January 07, 04:57 AM

David, it should take around an hour and a half from Prestwick Airport to Dumfries by car depending on the weather. Dee, Patrick, Robertson, I'll probably be over at Dumfries a bit earlier on Friday (around 12 or 1). If weather's reasonable I'm thinking of a quick visit to Caerlaverock Castle first then coming over to Ferintosh mid-afternoon unless you have other plans for me.

**David Dalglish** · 21st January 07, 05:21 AM

As Alex said about 1 1/2 hrs find the A77- then the A70, up to the A76, This will take you to Dumfries--Head or ask directions for the Railway station, Ferintosh is directly opposite the Station. Watch out for Speed camera's around the Airport as they are a few. hope this helps. See you soon

Anne-Lise and I can't promise to be with everybody all the time - this is our first get-away alone together since Sebastian was born 7 years ago...

So we'll prpobably sneak out alone to get that kidless-and-just-the-two-of-us feeling...
