simpo Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Right I desperately want to drive the lakes as its been far to long since my last venture up North. Im struggling to get time off work and am going to miss the next Nordubs outing because of it. So does anyone fancy a drive out, on Sunday and Monday of the bank holiday weekend, or perhaps a weekend at the end of September? Camping, BBQ's and some awesome roads included.Please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simpo Posted August 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Well the more the merrier so end of September is looking promising, forgot all about this at work today but will set a reminder to check when im back on Wednesday. Looks like we could potentially have an alright turnout. Just need more Southerners to make the long journey North. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
