See ya soon Cheers Trev

Nice one Trev and Tiger Dave.
Looking forward to catching up.

Catchin up Dave?
U swappin the Duke for summat a bit quicker then? Lol

Hi Ross, Was out with Christian on Sunday morning and mentioned the BM he says he's up for it, but would prefer a B@B in the village, to be honest so would I nothing personal of course, but the thought of DBD making animal noises all night did affect my thinking. Then there's breakfast and your very kind offer of making it, yeh I think B@B is the way to go
Cheers for now Tes.

I might have a pillion for the Big Mac, so may need another bunk in the hostel.
My wee brother wants to come along, he's just trying to sort out time off and I'll confirm in the next couple of days.

We're all coming up to God's Country early to make a week of it, if we come past Casa del Rosco I'll give you a shout so you can get the kettle on in time

Really looking forward to this after missing out on BM 2009 AND WM 2010!

Chris

Trev / Dave - Great news that you both can make it......Can you put your names on the sign up board too please?
Terry / Chris (eddie990) - Good news about Christian and your Bro... Can you do the same please?
Terry - DirtBikeDave's animal noises are nothing to worry about. It is his footsie games that are the scariest. Even I can't burn coco pops and milk.....but that will be fine I'm sure....Can you sort your own B&B nearby the hostel in Braemar?

I'll sort out Hostel accomodation soon for everyone else.....Unless you tell me otherwise.

Only got two women going now.......Any more women want to go?

Sign up quick... there is only a few trillion left [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Is this not the Big Mac Sign up board then?? now im confused.

Just been lookin at the Big Mac details on the other thread (Sticky), and we appear to be heading off on two saturday rideouts. One on the saturday, and one on the sunday. You sure do some weird stuff north of the border, lol.
Now im even more confused!

Suzi is no longer able to make it so I've removed her from the list.

If you are considering this then please get your name down sooner rather than later.






Cheers
Rosco

I'm up for this, and probably Mrs K too. Not fussed about accommodation, either bunk or B&B is fine, whichever makes the numbers easier.

The B&B's I have called are all full [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] a wedding on that weekend - haven't tried them all though.

I've booked extra space at Hostel

Stevecat ...... Still to get accomodation


Only joking about the Hareem bit ..... If the numbers in the Hostel don't change (and the girls don't mind) then can I suggest the girls share the 8 bunk dorm with the boys??

Stevecat - If you want to stay in the Hostel that would be fine as I'll book another 4 bunk dorm for 3 nights, cancel the two Eddie Beds, give the girls back their dorm and it would mean we would have 1 spare space.

Still space left the hostel if anyone else fancies coming along........come on you know you want to.
No one bites........except the Wild Kat Wolf :evil2:

I'm hoping the total cost for the Hostel peeps will be about £25 pppn which should be more than cover cost of room, breakfast stuff with whatever left over getting beverages for night-time and / or kitty for the pub.

Cheers
Rosco

Hi All

I paid a £132 deposit to the Hostel when I made the booking back in March and need to pay the balance £748 in the next few weeks.

Therefore I need some money (£20 pppn) from everyone please.
If you're not able to pay it all right now can you let me know.

You can pay electronically bank to bank, cheque, or paypal (£41.61 [2 nights] or £62.32 [3 nights] according to [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] should cover fees)

Can you PM me how you would like to pay and I'll reply with my details.

Thanks
Ross

Thanks for the payment ......

Stevecat
WildKatWolf (& Ohlins)

Can everyone else get in touch soon please?

Regarding PayPal fees I think the sender gets the option for pay the fees (if any) on sending ... I think you need to choose PERSONAL and PERSONAL PAYMENT OWED.

Cheers
Rosco

Note that since we now have 16 people in the Hostel the 3 girls will need to share the 8 room with the boys.....unless I hear otherwise. Obviously if the numbers increase we can get another room.

Total cost will be split equally by all who stay at the hostel on a pppn basis. This will include breakfast and beverages of your choice (if you come shopping with me!)

In two weeks time up until two weeks before - if I cancel any room they will refund 45% the total cost of that room
If we need to cancel a room in the last two weeks then we needn't bother as we don't get a refund (we can spread out though)

Yesterday I paid the remaining balance to SYHA.
Can those of you who haven't PM'd me yet to pay me your £20pppn please get in touch so I'm not out of pocket.
I'll PM you in a few days as a gentle reminder.
If you are unable to pay the full amount now that is fine just let me know. If you need to cancel that is fine too. I just need to know what rooms I need sooner rather than later.

Rosco

Note that since we now have 16 people in the Hostel the 3 girls will need to share the 8 room with the boys.....unless I hear otherwise. Obviously if the numbers increase we can get another room. If two more people aren't staying then I can change one of the rooms to only two nights.

Total cost will be split equally by all who stay at the hostel on a pppn basis. This will include breakfast and beverages of your choice (if you come shopping with me!)

In two weeks time up until two weeks before - if I cancel any room they will refund 45% the total cost of that room
If we need to cancel a room in the last two weeks then we needn't bother as we don't get a refund (we can spread out though)

If you HAVE to cancel after I don't think it is fair for you to have to pay full whack but again it is not fair on everyone else if it increases everyones cost dramatically especially if it is more than one person. Hopefully this won't happen but if it does we will sort something out.

I have paid the remaining balance to SYHA so currently I am out of pocket.

Can those of you who haven't PM'd me yet to pay me your £20pppn please get in touch soon.
Cheque, bank transfer or paypal please.
I'll PM you as a gentle reminder.

If you are unable to pay the full amount now that is fine.....just let me know.

Ideally I need to know who is going (or who is cancelling) before 25th June as any room cancellations I make after that may cost us.

Still plenty of space at the Hostel but this will start disappearing fast so if you wanna come you'd better get your name down soon.

It has come to my attention that we may have a few snorers.
Please ensure you bring earplugs and have a suitably sized night cap.

If we get another signup we can put the snorers together.
If we don't we still might put the snorers together.

I think you need to be called Dave to be on the decibel chart as we have two contenders so far and they are both called Dave.

Anyone want to volunteer themselves or volunteer someone else for the snorers suite?

Cheers
Rosco

I have to be honest and say that when I have had a few beers there may be a case for me being a slight snorer..... Perhaps... In a small way...

I don't believe it myself but I have been told in the past that it is the case so I'll put my hand up. Unless of course it's a booze free weekend in which case no probs at all!
