I've just discovered it's over an hour to get there so unless I can get company I'm not so keen as I was.  I'll think about it.

Annie, make sure you google Letham in Fife, there are a few in other parts of Scotland! It's not that bad getting here (please tell her, Rosemary, did it take you an hour??) from where you are...and we came down for "your" poultry auction, too  :) :&>

I googled Letham fife and got TWO of them, but I also noticed it is twinned with another village(can't remember what it was now) so I used that as well and got one hour and 7 minutes on Google from Clackmannan.  Depends on the weather and if anyone else wants to come with me.  No takers so far and I put out an APB on the CSSA email list.

the A 91 goes nearly all the way through. when you hit the A 92 at a roundabout you turn left onto it towards Dundee, then it's a couple of miles. Hoping to see you  :&>

I now have to go out tomorrow morning so can't leave the dogs again in the afternoon if I'm going to Graham's party at night too.  Will I pick you up Sandy - I won't be drinking - well maybe one as a 'Happy Birthday' toast

Morning, what time do you want to go?, not read the invite so it may be around 7.00pm I think as 6.00pm is a bit early, thanks for the offer of the lift, it would be good, thats if you want to take us two reprobates?

How did I miss you Annie? Met Lu, Bobby and Morag at the stall.
I hope everyone enjoyed themselves - it could have been more people, but at least we were spared the downpour!

Never saw you at all Kerstin.  I'd have recognised you too. Me and Karen just wandered around for a bit, tasted the beetroot and chocolate sponge, and the courgette Patates, had a buffalo burger, chatted to George and Morag, Lu and Bob, went on the first forage trip which wasn't very good, didn't find much; had a cup of tea then helped get the gazebo down and went off home to get ready for Graham's party.
