To those doing the nine holer first are you going up the day before? It's a six hour drive for us so already looking at an early start to make the 2.30pm time........

I'll be some where between Falkirk and Edinburgh the day before, I'm road tripping up starting on Monday!!

We've just decided to go up the Wednesday night, but not use an extra days holiday.

Get home from work, have our tea (dinner for those down south), leave the NW around 7pm, after the rush hour.

Get to Perth/Stirling area for around 10.30/11.00. Sleep in the next day, brekky, leave around 10.00, drop our gear off at the hotel.

Get to cruden for around 1.00, play the St'Olaf 9 holer, have one of the later tee times to play the main course around 3.00. (tee times are from 2.30 onwards)

Jobs a good un.:thup:

 

[HDID Kenny]

How long do you reckon to play it Ken - hour and a half, or a bit longer?

No longer Pete, it's nice and flat.

So where you all stopping Wednesday night? Think going up then is the better option tbh

I hear the Cartwheel Inn in Blairgowrie is a delightful place to spend an evening

Still gutted I can't make this

One of the best nights I've ever had was in there, hilarious.

Perth Broxden junction (travelodge) - anyone recommend any greasy spoons near here, or on the way to Dundee?

There's a place called The Horn on the A90 between Perth and Dundee. You won't be disappointed, they do the best bacon roll you can get anywhere.

Slight irritation in that it's on the wrong side of the dual carriageway as you're heading north east. It's worth the visit though.

Birchy, take note Sir, take note.

i think there is a turn off just past it ( coming from Perth) Jim, unfortunately you might have to go almost all the way to Perth to come back again

Any politics surrounding one of our hosts for the trip can be discussed in the OOB section :thup:

There is also a Maccies next door and a Harvester.

I would appreciate it if anyone doesn't post stuff regarding Donald Trump on this thread.

Its for the OOB section.

Trump Aberdeen have done us a cracking deal and have been totally professional throughout this whole process, we do not need to be ruining our relationship with them and certainly not having our booking pulled from us because of comments on this thread.

Rant over in a polite way.

Birchy, if there was ever confirmation that we are going here, this is most definitely it.

Did you put salt on it as well?
