Post by: bloomer on May 30, 2014, 08:49:14 am
So very excited, packing my bag for the journey north (are there bears and avalanches in Aberdeenshire?)


Heading up to the Spring Gathering tomorrow with Mrs B. we'll both be working on the event somewhere tomorrow so if you find yourself talking to the English couple from Alloa thats us!!!


Seriously though as i don't know Thainstone and i do know that some markets can be freezing and others like sauna's my bag for 1 day looks like I'm travelling for a month!!!


Who's going to be there?

Not at the moment. More frequent events up here are helicopter accidents or planes landing on the A96...

Weather forecast looking good for tomorrow - have fun!

Car loaded (and I mean loaded) and we'll be leaving in 15 minutes.

If you are coming, and I hope you are, I'll be based in the office in the main concourse so please do come and say "hello".

 :fc: that all goes well. Feeling  :excited: and terrified.

Hope you all have a great day. So sorry I won't be there but we've decided that the eight hourish round drive is just too much and the planet will thank us for saving the petrol.

Going - sort of getting organised - must go and do shopping, get hay, tag the lambs and kid but late enough that they doing pull them out before we leave in the morning - so about 6.00am then!!
Pack up, where is everything, panic ..........

We'll be there with the kids - if you see mum and dad with 1 girl and a sulky older girl tagging along about 10 feet behind that will be us !!!
