i,ll be up in inverness that week end as some mate from my old regiment having a bit of a reunion, maybe take a run down to see you all there (should,nt be hard to find lot of 75,s in grantown) although it,d depend on just how much beer and fine whiskey gets forced upon us lol.

Hi there.

Graham has asked for my help in setting this up so I am keen to see what demand there is?

This could be similar to the Oban weekend we had last year (and here's hoping for similar weather :D).

Anyone interested please let me know and we'll see if there is enough to start a separate meet thread or we simply run with this one.

Let's make 2012 a busy year! :D

Had a look at the Ben Mhor Hotel at Grantown on Spey, price vary between £50 per person/per night single on a Bed and Breakfast with a Double being £70

Dinner Bed and Breakfast based on 2 sharing 1 night £52 and 2 nights £87....however the tarrif says there maybe discounts for groups....i have have stayed in this hotel a while ago and have dined here and can vouch it is a lovely hotel, well run with excellent meals and i think it would be an excellent choice to stay.....:)

it,s 4 months away, i,m sure you could put in for couple of lieu days or couple of annual leave days, think 4 month notice is more than adequate notice for an employer to arrange cover.

Hi Graham,

I've just tried to have a look at the Ben Mhor Hotel and found that your link was slightly wrong.

Correct Link is: http://www.benmhor.co.uk/

Hi Steve..That photo is Carrbridge which is just about 10 miles from Grantown on Spey, that bridge is a landmark.
