Arranstock(s)
  • I'll be in when I can be in. Just before I left for this trip I booked in leave for March/April 2018. Not sure how much I'll get but I'd probably be up for using part of that for Arranstock.

    This sounds somewhat out of my comfort zone, which probably means that I should try and do it. Having said that, I've got a lot on this year already, but if the timing works out I will see what I can do.
  • I'd be interested in principal, but these days I have to take most of my leave in allocated windows, which makes planning difficult.

    Clayton and Sonny ftw. The only downside is the tv is sn old crt job but I'll bring a WiiU anyway so I can try and beat Tempy at Mario Kart.
    I can't speak for everyone but I would consider games as a last resort.
    Yeah, you'll not be wanting that when you're there - I never do, but as it's a gaming forum I thought I'd make a token effort.
    I'd rather have a bunch of interesting and light boardgames like Avalon and Monikers on hand. Stuff to instigate vocal nonsense.

    We can take you to the distillery, Tempy. Where SG's demands of you drinking more can be met

  • I've been to it before and got stranded for hours because of Arran's sparse transport links.

    Stranded at a distillery sounds pretty amazing, TBH.

    Skerret's posting is ok to trip balls to and read just to experience the ambience but don't expect any content.

    Really? It's good in December but the darkness stops too much hillwalking. Although when there's snow on the mountains it can be spectacular. Not many could make that time of year but I probably can as an extra trip but actual Xmas I can't do.

    Thumbing a lift is always an option. Unless the car is full I tend to stop.

  • You could combine both without me with instructions. You'll just have to let yourself in and there's notes for guests about turning the Aga on and stuff.
  • Just Mentioned it to the wife to see how she'd feel if I left for a long weekend/break whatever.

    She gave me a look that suggested a divorce if I leave her alone with our two sons.

    So guess I'm out :(
    Not everything is The Best or Shit. Theres many levels between that, lets just enjoy stuff.

  • Not as easy as that. Twin boys who both need constant attention and feeding is a bit much to be left alone with for a few days.

    Maybe if you two organise things correctly with Mrs Wookie you can manage a couple of days each?
  • By the time I can come over your boys will be self sufficient anyhow
  • Not as easy as that. Twin boys who both need constant attention and feeding is a bit much to be left alone with for a few days.

    Sit her down, take her by the hand, and calmly explain you never asked for twins so it would be unfair for you to lose your "me time". If she's rational, she'll understand.

    Give me dates as soon as you can and I'll check nobody is staying. It happens occasionally over New Year but not often, so the sooner the better so I can reserve time for you.

  • Right, it's about time to bring this up again. I'm thinking early Autumn, around September. It's great and you all should come for drinks and wellbeing stuff. Especially you.

    Booze, isolation, nice views and general Scottish shit sans murder. Fuck the kids and be selfish for a change. You will love it.

    I'll wager if i suggest this to preggatron I'll get the same treatment.

  • So what is Arran like in March?

    That March April leave period is locked in and I would be happy to use some time in March for an Arranstock as I'm thinking of visiting Rock in Berlin too. Currently the first week of March is out but the rest is free!

    Let me know what you think Space.
  • Nobody keen on an Arranstock anymore?

Howdy, Stranger!
