The return to Loch Lomond is go!!

SUNDAY 20th NOVEMBER 2011 at 13:00

Hi All,

It is that time of year again! So for the final unofficial meet of the year we shall once again return to Loch Lomond Shores on the day of their Xmas Lights switch on. This year it is Sunday 20th November 2011 and again there will be a Farmer's Market, fireworks and entertainment.

I can confirm that the radio roadshow will be there again and there will be entertainment. Now confirmed that Gamu and Tom Urie will be performing this year. The last two years it has been well worth waiting for!

Hi there,

You will be more than welcome. Shall I put you down as a "maybe" at the moment then? You can let me know as soon as you know your hours for that weekend.

We usually meet at Dumbarton (Asda about 12:30) and convoy up to Loch Lomond for 13:00. Fireworks and Xmas lights switch on is usually about 5 (ish).

Cheers,

Would you mind if a southerner attended your meet. :bowdown:

We`re attending the NEC the weekend before and staying in Blackpool for a few days and hoping to extend my leave so we can attend Loch Lomond.

I`m just waiting for confirmation from work and if possible both myself and Julie would like to attend.So could we be added as possibles please?

Ray :D

Hi Ray,

We would be delighted and if it carries on at this rate there will be as many "southerners" as Scots attending. We already have suzublu (possibly with guests), J1MBO and The Flying Banana travelling up, plus our resident "Anglo's" in Tim_Burgess and Halcyon. :D:D

I've added you to the possibles and hope you can make it.

Cheers,

Derek

Hi Robert,

That is a shame as I was looking forward to meeting and you having the rare opportunity of having two Yellow cars at a meet.

Naturally your health is somewhat more important than a meet. I'll update the list. This is an annual meet so maybe next year? :shrug:

Best of luck at the hospital (whatever it may be for).

Regards,

Derek

Well good luck with the MOT for the old silver one!

In terms of shopping, what is Jan after? Fashion or Bargains? Shopping Centre or City Centre? Best shopping variety is undoubtedly available in the City Centre, however parking is problematic and/or expensive. Let me know what you fancy and I can make some suggestions. :}

And of course, Silverburn is one definite option (newest shopping centre on the southside and only 5 minutes from my front door :}). And incidentally the scene of the 1st Scottish Meet over 3 hyears ago.

Hi Derek.

Right on the button mate,the answer to both is "A"

[derekosb]

Okay, if it is Fashion and a Shopping Centre then most likely will be Silverburn.

Details Here (http://www.silverburn.com/website/)

The City Centre however can offer additional benefits.

At the top of the town is the Buchanan Galleries (http://www.buchanangalleries.co.uk/)

Halfway down the hill is the beautiful Princes Square (http://www.princessquare.co.uk/)

And at the bottom the recently extended St. Enoch Centre (http://www.st-enoch.co.uk/)

3 Major Shopping Centres within a Square Mile.

This might just cost you a small fortune John :o:o

SILVERBURN - My favourite place :D

SILVERBURN - My favourite place :D


SILVERBURN was built on a 'strip' of land.
I usually hear "I just need to get something from TESCO, then pop into M&S" They are six miles apart. NIGHTMARE!

Now Glenn, that's a bit of an exaggeration although I know what you mean :D I have walked that mall too many times

It is actually only 600 Metres from the door of Tesco to the entrance of Marks & Spencers. (Don't want to put John & Jan off too much...;))

Hi Guys
Just checked my diary for this one but yet again I'm double booked.
This time I'll be on my way home from Malaga. I had also planned to go to the NEC but that's the day we fly out.
Maybe the next Scottish meet we will make it if the missus stops booking holidays. :o

Hi Simon,

I contacted Your Radio (via their Facebook page) to confirm they were doing a roadshow this year. They said they are doing it but could not confirm at this stage who would be performing, simply that they were trying to be bigger and better than the previous years.

Look's like we'll just have to wait and see. I'll keep checking and if I get a clue will let everyone know.

Hi Jim,

Yes, that is the plan, although I will work out other pick up points for the convoy once we know who is travelling up on the day and who is coming up the day before.

Hi Jim,

Thanks Derek, we're coming up the day before and stopping at the Travelodge at Milton so we'll meet up at Asda.

Looking forward to it, really enjoyed last year.

[FLYER]

Nothing else for it , i will have to dig out the huge SCOTLAND flag i had at gretna :drool4:

[FrazzleTC]

I'll be driving up on the day, so maybe some of the members travelling from the South could meet at the Welcome Break at Abington and convoy up from there?

good idea that , you could lead them to asda dumbarton .

That sounds like a plan. Once we know final numbers and peoples travel dates we can set up the convoys.

This should help anyone travelling up from the south, the new M74 extension opened earlier this year.

Previously, from the M74 you had to travel up the M73 and join the M8 then across the Kingston Bridge. Not now! :D You can now travel across the south of Glasgow towards the Airport and Erskine Bridge areas without having to go the long way.

I live at the Fullarton Junction 2A and since its opening it has made such a difference to my travelling times.

See the image below for guidance. The M74 Extension is the yellow/blue areas.

We've already had the Kittycat Dolls and the Sundays any idea:shrug::)

Okay, Loch Lomond Shores have just posted an update on their Facebook page for the Xmas Lights switch on for the 20th November.

Appearing on stage will be Gamu (from last year's X-Factor) and Tom Urie (Big Bob) from River City.

Here's Gamu at a concert in Glasgow from 2010:

And at T Fest 2011 (which is a bit more like what we can expect - apart from the weather)

And apparently Tom Urie is a singer too:

Makes a bit of a change from the last 2 years with tribute acts but it will be interesting to see Gamu at least (although I might see her this Saturday as she is performing in Paisley at the fireworks :}).

Anyone else able to make the meet please let me know. Looking forward to this as only 2 weeks on Sunday.

Derek

[suzublu]

Thought she got deported :shrug:

[derekosb]

Thought she got deported :shrug:

No, she won her case earlier this year.

Her mother also successfully defended the allegations against her for wrongfully claiming benefits.

Hey, you can't help but like her mother, she drove a Rover 75 :}

[Bluejon]

Hi Derek,

Up to pres,we plan on coming up with Hiyo Silver,but that depends in the meantime,her passing her medical,otherwise will revert back to old faithful.We also plan on making a weekend of it,Jan fancies a wee bit shopping on Sat,where do you recommend around the Glasgow area?
We then plan staying Sat night at the Premier Inn Dumbarton/Loch Lomond, so not too far to travel Sun Morning,looking forward to another good meet.

Best Regards.

John & Jan.

Hi Derek,

As mentioned above,we are travelling up Sat,do some Xmas shopping,staying the night at Dumbarton/Loch Lomond Premier,is this anywhere near your convoy route,if so,could we tag along from there?many thanks in anticipation.

Best Regards.

John.

John.

Hi John,

Yes, you are very close and we would pass within probably 250 yards of the hotel entrance (particularly if I take the right road this year :o).

Your hotel is so new it is not even shown on Google Maps yet. It is within probably 3/4 of a mile from the usual convoy meeting point (Asda Dumbarton G82 1RB). You therefore have two choices:

A) I can meet you & Jan at your hotel and guide you to the convoy meeting point at Asda in Dumbarton

or

B) The convoy stops at your hotel to pick you & Jan up.

Bearing in mind how many cars we might have in the convoy I would suggest it best if I got you both and took you to the Asda. Probably about 12:15 to get to Asda for the 12:30 convoy?

What do you think?

I'd noticed it wasn't on google maps yet so I can't use the android tablet as a satnav - not checked the TomTom, but I guess if google hasn't got it they also won't have updated yet.

[Yella Fella]

This thread has gone a bit quiet.


SEE YOU THIS SUNDAY!

[derekosb]

Thanks Glenn!! :D

Any more for any more?

And I wondered who is up for convoys?

Tim_Burgess and Barrienixon I know will just go direct as they live nearer the Shores than Dumbarton. Does that go for you and Ruth too Steve (Halcyon) as well? :}

At the moment we are definitely meeting at the Asda in Dumbarton at 12:30 to head up to Loch Lomond Shores in convoy for 1:00.

I am going to collect Silvervixen, Bluejon and bigD (and Gloria) around 12:15 at the Premier Inn Dumbarton to then guide them to the Asda car park for 12:30.

We also have the option, for those coming up from the South on the Sunday morning (suzublu, Ray Squires?, Canon, MGStephen & Gramps, Rotrex etc) to meet before and convoy up.

Frazzle TC has offered to meet at Abington if anyone is interested?

Let me know what point you would like to meet and I'll set up lists for the rendezvous points.

So far:

Abington Services, Junction 13, A74(M) - 11:00/11:15 (59 Miles to Asda, Dumbarton)

FrazzleTC

Premier Inn, Dumbarton - 12:15

Hi Roddy,

It is what is known as an "unofficial meet" organised by members of the club, but not by the "Club" itself if you know what I mean.

You will be more than welcome to attend. The venue is a public shopping outlet centre. We are allowed the use of the overflow car park on the day as a courtesy from the Centre Management. This is our third year in a row at this venue as it has proven very popular with the members.

We pick the weekend of the Xmas Lights switch on as the Centre tends to have several attractions running on the day which makes it an ideal family day out as well. There is a Your Radio roadshow, Farmers Market, Santa's Grotto as well as the Xmas Lights and a fireworks display. And not forgetting the shops themselves.

Let me know if you can make it and I'll add you to the list.

Cheers,

Derek

There might be a mini-convoy from sunny Kilcreggan. Last outing of the year for the 75 before it gets put on SORN till the spring.

Not had time to do much to the ZT yet other than a quick wash & hoover so you'll get to see it in its raw state.

I'm at the start of the new M74 so not far enough to be south and not quite in the west :shrug::shrug:

Big Fra, I could get you at Daldowie about 11.30am and we could sit on the bridge over the M74 and watch for those who are coming from the south and join them once they pass under us :shrug::shrug:

What time you leaving Derek?

[derekosb]

What time you leaving Derek?

Morning Anna,

I will be leaving about 11:00 or so as I am picking up a "special guest" in Glasgow (who is not from Glasgow) first and then heading to the Premier Inn at Dumbarton to rendezvous with Silvervixen & Bluejon & bigD before heading to the Asda.

You are welcome to tag along if you like but you might prefer to go straight to Dumbarton for 12:30? You could probably leave just before 12 and still make it?

You can let me know.

I will be in Glasgow for the weekend visiting and found I had a few hours spare on Sunday afternoon and couldn't think of anything better than spending a bit of time meeting up again.

Derek as the gentleman he is offered to pick me up from the hotel in the Jaguar,which also gives me a chance of checking it out a little closer.

Looking forward to this,it will be great to catch up with old faces and introduce myself to the new.

Hi Roddy,

Glad to know you will make it and I'll add your name to the list on Post No 1.

If you manage along to the big Asda in Dumbarton for 12:30 you can join the convoy up to Loch Lomond Shores. Otherwise it is the overflow car park at Loch Lomond Shores which is on the right as you go in but before the main car parks. It's just a gate on your right so make sure you don't miss it. See you on Sunday.

Cheers,

Derek

[Bluejon]

Hi Derek,

Just a wee note to let you know we will be coming up in old "Bluey",as the "Vixen still needs a few things to be sorted,not going to take her off the road altogether for the winter,just alternate with Bluey on a weekly basis locally whilst she is prepared for next years season.

Really looking forward to this one,so all being well,see you at the Premier Sunday,with Ronnie coming along,better pack the brollies just in case lol.

Best Regards.

John & Jan.

[derekosb]

Hi John,

Okay, I'll amend the list to reflect the change.

Have you decided yet where Jan is taking you shopping on Saturday yet?? :}

I have just asked her and she say's she can't make a decision in a hurry,I guess that means the "BIG" wallet :getmecoat:lol.

[Bluejon]

BTW Derek,do you have any club grille badges left? if so will puchase one for the vixen this weekend,many thanks.......John.

[derekosb]

I have just asked her and she say's she can't make a decision in a hurry,I guess that means the "BIG" wallet :getmecoat:lol.

I would say it may depend on the weather John? If it's wet then a shopping centre like Silverburn might be best.

However, if it's dry (which obviously would be best) the City Centre really offers a far superior shopping experience. Park in the Buchanan Galleries car park and head down the hill (Buchanan Street) and don't miss Prince's Square, it's a wee gem.

Best of luck mate, either way it's gonna cost you! :}

Derek

I'll be bringing a Rover flag - got an MG one and another flag pole if required.

[Yella Fella]

Thats great Jimbo.:} I was thinking of two flags (MG and Rover) on one ploe but that depends on the size of your flag. My MG one is a long flag, rather than the traditional flag shape.

If it's not too much trouble, your extra pole may come in handy.

Okay. I have arranged with Derek that i will not stop at Dumbarton. I will carry on to Loch Lomond and mark our territory by 'raising the flag' :D then help to arrange the cars as they arrive, so I'll put up the MG flag only in preperation of your Rover one. Lets hope for a slight breeze with a lot of sunshine.

Excellent Jim,

We tied Glenn's flag and pole to the gate to the overflow car park last year to help identify the car park for members. There should be space for 2 flags (one either side) hopefully which should look great.

This was Glenn's last year:

Oh err misses that's a big flag, my Rover one doesn't come up to that sort of expectations.

Might also run direct to the carpark at the Shores on Sunday, meet up with Glenn and get the flags set up prior to the "rabble" arriving - that's if I get the car polished early enough :shrug:.

No worries. Let me know for sure if you will be missing out the Asda because at the moment I am not sure how many are meeting there as yet.

No-one has said if they will be at the Asda yet guys!!! :p::p:

So far it is just me plus bigD and Bluejon/Silvervixen, who I am bringing down from their hotel, and Frazzle TC.

Flyer, Scooterchick, Rotrex, MG Stephen, Gramps, AldoR, Weeman, Scouse1958, parahandy, danmayberry, bigfra and Spencertherover? What are you guys planning to do?

Appreciate if you can let me know so we won't wait for anyone who is just going direct.

Thanks,

Just had a thought Derek, if I go direct to the Shores carpark and set up the flags with Glenn I'll be able to video everybody arriving - might look good.

I have never heard of her before but she seems to be a talented young Scottish singer called Rachelle Rhienne.

She is 18 and sounds Scottish but seems to travel between here and London. Getting ready to release her new album.

Anyway: FACEBOOK profile here (https://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=logo#!/RachelleRhienne?sk=info)

And a few performances on her You Tube Channel

Hi Andy,

I was going to say Welcome to the club when I saw your post count but see from your profile you have been a member a fair while.

Always good when we get new members to a meet so hope you can make it along. 12:30 at the big Asda in Dumbarton to be at Loch Lomond Shores for 13:00. If you can't make those times we will see you whenever you can make it.

We will be in the overflow car park which is on the right on the entrance road before the main car parks.

I'll add you to the possibles for now and if you know you can definitely make it I can move you on to the main list on the 1st post.

Cheers and hope to see you Sunday.

Hi Anna,

The big Asda is easy to find as it is on the main road in to Dumbarton. Across the Erskine Bridge, follow the signs for Dumbarton and hang a left at the lights just after the 2 petrol stations and just follow the road into Dumbarton. The Asda is on the right opposite the Morrisons at a mini roundabout.

I'll see you there as I'm sure you will find it ;)
