What dates do you prefer for the Scotland Convoy?
Please select one. If you have a second choice please post in the thread.
You don't have to come for the whole two weeks, you could come for one week or come late/leave early etc to fit in with other arrangements.

just to say that Monday May 26th is a bank holiday, and the later we go the more of a midge problem there will be - I think early June they start?

Good point ... it would give us an extra day to get back if we go for 10-26 May If we follow my suggestion of Torridon, Applecross, Skye, Rhum, Mull, Islay , Arran, Ayr we will be back in Ayr and within easy reach of Carlisle. Not so daunting as coming back from Thurso!

I would have voted for 2 or 3 dates, so just because I've not voted for a certain date does not mean I'm unable to go then

As per first post, select your primary choice, and put other possibles down in the thread Edit: I put May 10-25 as choice, but could pretty much do most of them at the moment.

Exciting - I wonder if we should have two separate convoys?
I could probably do either of those although I think I voted for the earlier one.

If there are two distinct groups I suppose it makes sense unless people have preferences about who they want to travel with. Btw I purposely posted to get the poll back in sight!

I haven't voted cos I don't know if I will be able to afford it yet so will wait and see what the votes is, I can probably make most dates at the moment but fancy bearded Theory which is 23rd - 25th May so a bit awkward for dates

Maybe if there are 2 distinct groups wanting 2 dates that's 2 convoys? Notwithstanding the timetobed/timetorise component!

I have voted for 10th May - 25th but can prob do any at this point in time haven't booked anything else in. Not sure if there will actually be 2 distinct groups though Carol as a lot of people have said the same thing so once a date is picked we may find people will opt for that one amyway. I am a bit concerned though about numbers as there are a LOT of votes , 12 so far and 12 vans def too many for a convoy....

Yes, I agree which is why it would make sense to have separate ones but we'll see how it pans. I voted for same one as you, yay!

I know this poll is open until the end of February but has everyone voted who is planning to do the trip? Sorry if I'm pushing it but have other plans that I need to fit round the trip so the sooner I know the dates, the better for me.

As you can see I have managed to work that out but not part of a quote. Now I'm thinking select text but instead of copy and paste just click on quote? And before you all mock my ignorance please remember we are all talented in different ways!
