The FS Birthday Weekender

I'm heading over on the Friday night as far as Kingussie as I don't think my knackered ankle will put up with that amount of driving in one day. booked into a b&b for £30 so I'm happy :)

Will see you all at Morrisons in Fort William on the Saturday

Edit, also booked into a hotel in Nairn for the Saturday night for £29
 
I was thinking about camping but suspect it's a bit early in the year yet.

Hopefully booking a hotel when I'm paid tomorrow. Waverly in Nairn seems to be £29 a room atm so possibly the cheapest that's left?!

Inverness/Elgin Travelodges are fairly stupidly priced at the moment :(
 
Waverly is where I'm booked into. I don't expect much for the price but as long as I have somewhere to sleep and a shower in the morning I'll be happy
 
Seanantasy, you have an email regarding your stickers. Long and short of it is do you want them sent to you now so they can go on the car before the meet or are you happy to wait until you see us. I'll take a few ethanol wipes with me to help apply stickers to cars.

All welcome for Nairn convoy :)

Think Sainsburies has been mooted as a meeting point which seems sensible?

Cool although it might not be an idea to trust me with the responsibility of fixing them on your car [attachment=1:2iihrgfo]speechless-smiley-040.gif[/attachment:2iihrgfo] It takes way too long for me to get it right with my own car and I've had plenty of practice now. Well, there are 4 FS stickers on there never mind the ones that didn't survive until I found out the secret of ethanol wipes :laugh:

The Nairn convoy time is currently getting sorted out to so keep an eye here for more information. We'll also make sure everyone attending this who doesn't currently have a mobile number for Martyn, msb89 or myself will do so and one or more of us will have a contact number for you just in case
 
Nairn convoy will be meeting at Sainsbury's (IV12 5QF) at 08:45 on the Sunday morning with the aim of being on the road by 09:10. should get us there in plenty of time... hopefully :D

And Sean, if your missus wants to join us she's more than welcome
 
Hi folks, for those attending could you please send me a text message to 07900 975723 with your name so as i have contact details for all of you. I will reply so you have mine as well.
This will be extremely handy in case of emergencies / anyone gets lost etc :) *touches wood*

I will likely be traveling in the Panda with Martyn so could be best port of contact as i can answer the phone!

Cheers y'all :)

Are we at FS, are some of us.... or am I for that matter ;) ... expected to go on the stand/show at the Forres Vintage Car show? I'm working hard to get my car to show level quality. Poor Punto has been through some accidents and am on a budget so it won't be perfect but It's all looking fairly decent now.

Past few nights plan is to get from this

to this:

I've debadged/de-skirted the sides but I still need to clean that horribly double sided tape from the door skirts/protectors. Any recommendations? I tried WD40 as I read on here, I tried White-Spirit, T-Cut, Hot water... but the stuff just doesn't budge. In same places it came of fully with the skirts but in others there are full bits of double sided tape attached still.. rrggg
 
DIRECTIONS TO FORRES vintage vehicle show on Sunday 4th May. Comeing from nairn. Follow the A96 for FORRES as you get to the outskirts of FORRES there is a 30mph limit due to road works. Go straight across the Findhorn bridge you will then see a Bervie chipper on your left. Go straight across the first round about. At the next round about take the second exit into FORRES. Follow the road past Tesco straight on at the round about. at the next round about go straight on up over a bridge and follow the high street when you go past a school on your right go straight past the turn off hear. About 30 meters from hear there is a turn right hand into grant park it will be sighn posted for the event. (watch as it is easy to miss) once in the park follow the road round and marshalls will guide you in from there. Hope this helps.
