Anyone about Elgin on Monday 3rd of May? I need someone to save me from having to go around a certain supermarket which can not be found in Inverness, and have been knocked back a few times when it came to planning, possibly due to another supermarket which (allegedly) the Highland Council have shares in?
The good news ( for my bongo's diesel/veg oil comsumption at least) is that this could one of the last times we go to this supermarket, as it looks like they are getting the go ahead to build one in Tain.
So anyone up for a mini meet?

Hi Dave.
I post on here once I'm told whats happening...I'm just the taxi driver.
Hope you were not hindered getting offshore or back on shore with this ash lark?
If not just wait, it looks like theres a possibility that the volcano next door to Eyjafjallajökullor, (copied and pasted

) Katla might go off .......big stylie.

I should be on the go that day too. There's a large carpark down at the new Matalan store which could be a good place to meet up. It's on the same road as Asda, just further along it. Keep us posted.

Sounds good to me. I'll be needing to buy a gas bottle from SD Harper's down that way anyway!!

I'm up visiting the folks that weekend - including the Bank Holiday. Should be able to pop along if it's not too late - think I know where Matalan is (it was all fields when I was a kid - or was it the sawmill??).

Used to be a sawmill.
Mind you, it was probably fields before that - depends on how long ago you were a kid!!

Yes, now I know what side of the road it's on. Don't visit often enough! That's the retail park that was completely empty for long enough.

Rangers demoted to join Livingston in the lower divisions if they go bust.

Are you really going to watch Cally Thistle sitting on Kessock Bridge Donald or are you thinking of something else.

You are getting me worried.

Do we have a time yet?? Or will it be last minute (No pun intended!)
There will always be 'The Rangers'! Scottish football couldn't cope without Rangers or Celtic.
