Mr Rose (as my brother in law ) was there as my wing man , we were on holiday up in Craobh for two weeks and were torn, we normally travel in tandem when we are up there for safety, we had a chat with Redbay and decided to travel down together and then berth the Ribquest at Lagavulin so we could at least get our Redbay in on the action and hopefully not cause any issues

Was a lovely day and I managed to squeeze on the end bottom right, met some lovely people including Tom, Connor and Gary, felt special to be invited, also great to see other 6.1 and 650s. Hope it didn't cause any offence.

Clyde bandits

Xk59D,

It was inappropriate for us Clyde bandits to turn up!!! You would not have liked the raft up options at Ardbeg ( after not stopping on Millport for the Honkie Tonk ) How ever I did manage a beer or two in Cushendall boat club on the Sat night thanks to Rynair.

... me, I suspect

I called my photo attached "Free Whisky" but I see now that "Free Spirit" would have been more appropriate. BTW, Dave is very highly spoken of at HQ - I was just having some fun with his having turned up to Black Tie wearing Fancy Dress
