Was a cracking weekend, even with clutch problems.

Good to meet up with a few familiar faces and making a few new friends.

Some video footage below, see if you can spot yourself!............not the best quality but scenery was stunning!

Roll on next year............................

Check out the old dear infront of the church at the end of this clip, waving to all the Scoobies......lol

glad we helped you see sense Brian, your stickers were one of the funniest things all weekend. dont think you were alone,my car went exactly how i wanted it too, was really nice to have all the money and mods ive thrown at her work perfectly together. like you said cant think of anything else id rather have been driving

Barry your car is definitely asbo friendly, i loooove it, melting bumper and all lol

so many highlights over the weekend,nearly wet myself when graham started pointing out the window at the donkeys as we came back into inverness, cathy and her diet coke :rotfl: , at last sampling Imy's legendary muffins, the party political broadcast for donkey heaven, watching dale and grant shimmy round the applecross hairpins behind me, the legend that is the doctor taking all abuse for hatch and proffesion while wearing his kilt all weekend AND for sharing a room with john-above and beyond the call of duty Glyn :rotfl:

Not sure where Derek's head and arms are and the ghostly waiters are a bit unnerving!

Here's a highlights vid from the footage I took. It's not in Squiggle's league I'm afraid but it gives a good spread of scenery, roads, burbles, chirps, pops, bangs and the different weather we encountered.

Check out the record braking pit stop ;)

Nice vid Baz ;) .

I used to live up in Kyle when I was a youngster, and the footage of going ever so gingerly down the cliffside road to Applecross is one that brings back so many memories :( .

There's some lovely white sandy beaches round that coastline too, very picturesque!!!

Some of that camera footage is the extra run we had chasing the banana imposter, very nice roads and absolutely spectacular scenery ;)
