Meet in Scotland 2024…?

[Coullabus]

Coullabus​

A question for anyone living in, or around, Scotland - is there any interest in a ‘meet’ sometime this year? I’m thinking a day/half day somewhere where we could drink tea (or something more Scottish?) and a bull session?

Not necessarily a serious off roady type event. Just a chance to meet, chat and compare experiences - possibly an opener event for future gatherings? An owners club in Scotland? Wow, did I just type that…

I’m thinking……. Well, not really sure what I’m thinking but it would be good to meet other owners.

A campsite/caravan site close to… to what? Mountains? A distillery? Please share your thoughts!

A couple of places spring to mind, but I’d love to hear from anyone with an interest.

Sounds like a great plan! Happy to bring a bbq if that helps gather the troops!

 

[Coullabus]

…..yep. Sounds good. Let’s see how many more respond!

Glad to see the community starting to organise events here in the UK, in Europe & all over the world. Appreciate the "Great Grenadier Charity Event", 5th May 2024 at the Elveden Estate, Thetford Norfolk UK, might be too far for some, but all are welcome.
Keep posting your dates & successes, & if I can, would love to join you at these events

I see someone in Suffolk (England) has already registered 'Ineos Grenadier Owners Club Ltd' with Companies house. As the sole shareholder/director..... does this club actually exist?

Sorry, all I could find were Social Media links - I don't have any SM accounts.

I’m in! Anywhere, I can travel and am self employed so can take holidays any time.

Camping, trekking, remote pub etc. Applecross Inn? Ardnamurchan distillery? I have a cask there I have been meaning to visit for a few years…

Somewhere, anywhere, off the beaten track and away from the hordes of camper vans (and their complete inability to comprehend the rules of single track roads) on the NC500 would be good.

Are the English allowed into Palestine?

Think a meet in Scotland is a great idea to be honest!

I suspect we may get along! Love the Applecross Inn, want to visit the Ardnamurchan distillery (had my cask of Bruichladdich bottled last year….). But do tow a double axle caravan!

Don’t tell anyone, I may live in Scotland but I’m actually English!

I’m on the south coast but a road trip to a meetup in beautiful Scotland would be very welcome.

The more the merrier!

@Coullabus yes we have much in common!! I have a few casks of glenglassaugh, just little ones (Octaves) but it’s a Sherry hogshead at Ardnamurchan. It looking forward to that duty bill!! How is the Laddie?

The Laddie is evaporating fast. Bottled at 50%, non chill filtered, natural colour. From a first fill ex Jack Daniel’s cask. Due to bottling schedules it’s a 9 year old. Actually about two weeks short of being 10, but wanted to avoid a longer wait for a bottling slot. I have a few shares via the ‘Still in the cask’ folk. And the inevitable collection of bottles.

Might be interesting to find a local off roading company for a guided tour over unmettled roads. Be quite a sight as well as fun.

I h@ve contacted scotoffroad just south of Perth to see what they can offer.
