    As I said mate I'm not over in the east coast that much, and I would be happy for someone else to take over in that area if need be. Especially if there are roads that are a must.

    Ok guys Ive managed to find a Hotel for the first night in Grantown-on-Spey. This is for 14 people, with there being 6 twin rooms and a double room. All in it's £588 which works out at £42 for bed and breakfast for the night.

    Hopefully the link works

    Thoughts?? Too expensive/posh?? Or is this the kind of thing we are after

    Lol I can't count worth a tosh. There are 14 of us :eek:.
    Won't make a difference to the price for each of us though.

    I'll get it booked probably Friday to let the guys see it and get the funds in.
    I'll book it with no penalty for pulling out, just in case the weather is horrible.

    That's one circumstance where I would definitely flex my veto muscles, I'm afraid.




    If it wasn't for the fact that my missus is already in the Modern Minx thread that is.

    If people want an idea of the sort of road you will encounter this clip is not bad -

    Forward to about 10 minutes in and enjoy it as it blasts its way towards the roller coaster road


    The footage from 20 - 25 mins set to Ian Brown and 'FEAR' is amazing to watch

    Pretty sure at 27 mins in its Granton-On-Spey
