I will be there one way or another, just have to ask my other half if I can stay the night with you lot. At a tad over 15 miles from my place it is going to take me 25 mins to get to the campsite. Long trip for an oldie like me.. :wink: :wink: :wink:

Probably Brian! But this time I think that I will get his lordship to do it with his tractor if needed. This is a posh campsite within the grounds of the big house were the local Lord Lieutenant resides.

On the other hand I will be available to give your V-Dub a tow out of the muck if I decide to turn up in my Jeep Cherokee. :D :D :D

You are very welcome to come to the Scottish Borders Bob. Nice place and I believe that you actually win a prize if you find a midge anywhere near the towns and villages. But are you actually coming to see us horrible lot of Border Reivers or are you passing through on your way to Edinburgh Zoo to see the pandas?

:lol:

Thanks for the invite, Mrs B is of good Scottish decent so we try and get up every couple of years, and it will work well to tie this in with out main holiday.

Beautiful part of the world, although I may need a passport. 8)

Would be nice to see the pandas. :D

Not for the next couple of years at least Bob, but if the vote goes for separation then you are also going to need some currency exchange and a work permit if you want to work with the Pandas in Edinburgh Zoo :lol: :roll:
