I was thinking about the Currys car park (its opposite ASDA next to B&Q) because McDonalds car park is tiny & likely to be full with folk getting hang over cures !!
If anyone doesn't know where it is post up & i'll stick up a map link

Sarah - why don't you come anyway, you could have a little sleepy in the car on the way there, I'm sure it'll be a really slow gentle limousine style drive through............

Coming fae Huntly you'll be about 30-40 mins depending on traffic if you go through Keith then Lhanbryde, or you could take the more scenic (& probably quieter road) of Huntly through Dufftown down to Craigellachie then Rothes to Elgin.

Leaving Huntly at 11:45 would be fine. This should give us time to top up with Optimax in Keith if required

Yeah, excellent turn out, nice to meet everyone.
Thanks to Alasdair for leading the way from Huntly up to Elgin, that's a road i'll be taking again.
Agreed, a wee run should be organised for next time.
