Scotland trip 2011.

I hope you don't mind me asking? I notice there is a trip to Scotland, in September, mentioned on your website. Are there any members of Xmarks venturing over here on it?

Well, the booking is done through TravelWorld, the agency who is handling all those details and arranging the trip for us. So unless someone volunteers the information, we don't actually know who all is and is not signed up.

So I can tell you that I know of at least one X Marker who has booked for the trip. But how many others, I cannot say! Maybe those going can chime in here.

BTW, here's a link to the trip info Jock is referring to. TravelWorld is donating half of their profit for this trip to the museum!

Do you know if they will be doing it again for next year?

The trip is doing its very best to give you a good "taste" of what Scotland has to offer from South to North and from East to West. Well as you are lurking around Inverness for a couple of days maybe we might try and "bump" into each other Mael?

Me too.
Ern, I have pencilled in Abbotsford for Monday 12th September in my diary and will try to be there to say hello again. Abbotsford is just ten minutes up the road from my house.

There is always that possibility, depending on how much interest there is this year.

So any others from X Marks interested in going?

Sounds like fun! I don't think my bonnie lass and I will be making it over to green Alba this summer, we have too many things going on Stateside. We may be in Badenoch in the fall. Have a grand time Matt! If you get the chance, be sure to spend a wee bit of time in Badenoch, I think you would be quite fond of the Clan Macpherson Museum and House in Newtonmore - we recently received our 4th star not too long ago!

Slainte,

Looking forward to it, Alex!
