Highland Fling '13 Banter Thread....

[badbaz]

was tempted by this, but as I'm a football fan and drive a hatch.. ah well

seriously tempted been up to the highlands a few times and some cracking drives

Don't be tempted, be going! It's a great few days and you'll only ever wish you had

n't bought a hatch

Just kidding, the new saloon elevated the hatch out of the mocking zone. All comers welcome whatever you drive

[scooby222]

exactly - we keep taking Del out with us after all

as long as you dont make us watch football we dont really mind and hatches are usually so far behind noboby minds what they look like anyway

Its always good fun, usually great roads, frequently great weather and very occasionally organised properly.....

O and il email the real destination to everyone apart from Davie this week so shhh, dont tell him.....

[lewisscoob]

So, are we having a theme for Saturdays attire?

[scooby222]

yep, we're all going to dress up as hydro employees and play hunt the boy racer who cant manage to spot a landrover behind him - sound fun?

i have two of my friends that now have joined the scooby fraternity. told them about the site but not sure if there registered but they will probably come too even if they not o n here

[scooby222]

would be better if they signed on and said hi - i really need everyone coming definitely to have their names on the list to organise stops etc

[badbaz]

There literally are hunners Matty, what kind you wanting?

[corsa]

Matty, just back from 2 x days at the Fairmont Hotel in St Andrews, superb rooms/spa and food was spot on !! only an hour from Embra ;-)

[monsterenergy]

I really should just quit reading this thread cos I'm just annoying myself...

[scouk]

HOly crap! check out all the new noobie-flingers! This is gonna be one to remember

Interesting to see how the BMW copes compared to the Audi we had last year . Tiff Needell seemed to like it around them parts last year! Sadly Channel5 seems to have done a good job of cleaning old episode clips off the internet and I can't find it anymore

[jamesm]

So any tips or things I should look out for as a Fling virgin?

[scouk]

Keep it shiny side up!, Don't get lost, dont drive beyond what you feel is safe for you, and most importantly DON'T start following honda NSX's thinking they are Big Yellow Impreza's!!!

... Oh an have a lotta fun seeing and hearing these cars burble around the hills!
