Just had a thought, if we want to camp we could camp at the slalom site at Alva. There's a huge field with nothing around, great place for a BBQ and we can jump on the water and mess about as well. maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=alva&sll=53.800651,-4.064941&sspn=15.194454,40.517578&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Alva,+Clackmannanshire,+United+Kingdom&ll=56.144581,-3.781099&spn=0.001757,0.004946&t=h&z=18

I dunno, they only ever get accurate forecasts for 3 days in advance, guarantee Thursday will have changed by tomorrow.

BBC website is always wrong. Always predicts a sunny day when its actually a blizard. Use a local scottish one but dunno what...
Also when are we heading back? I've got an important meal that i can't miss at 7 back home so will we be back in dundee before 5?

I know we're not playing out at sea, but the Channel 4 Shipping Forecast is very good. if you wait until near the end, they give an Inland forecast - even if the water your interested in, isn't mentioned you can easily work out a pretty accurate forecast for where you are).
ps can listen to it nearer the time if you like, as it maybe a bit confusing if your not used to it.

Not holding out much hope for it now after seeing today's forecast... Is the tesco palace still functional?

Does anyone actually know when we're getting back? Might not be able to make it cause its a pre-funeral meal that i can't miss.

It'll be an A-Team, B-Team & Ladies, most likely same teams as BUCS...I think

Post by Alistairslalom on May 3, 2011 14:10:31 GMT
Nope, we have an A, B and C.
I've basically made it so that the A team is the usual team then the B team was the next strongest team etc.
The teams aren't set in stone so we can have a chat before hand and swap them about a bit if we need to.
