April Fool-type pranks not really whitewave's style, though...
I hope she's OK!

Not by putting it on a dozen different threads! Could be an April-Fool-type thing, which whitewave will reveal later, could be an SOS of some kind (feeling ill and can only tap on a key and hope to be noticed? though that would be a random key) could be some hacker or other who finds it amusing.

Is anyone interested (preferably someone with a car and a spare seat!) in getting there the previous day and going up to Knapdale to see the beaver site? There is a guided tour at 6 pm each day. It sounds as though that could be a good time to see them. virtual guided tour here that shows the kind of paths.

Important note - no cafe or toilets! So a packed tea and a comfort stop en route would be necessary.

I don't know how long the trip from Inverary to Bellanoch (the turn-off) would be. Do the Argyll grans have any info?

I should add that I'd be driving home the same day so could drop people off at Helensburgh station again in the late afternoon/early evening.

Just back from meeting soop in Lochgilphead. She loves the idea of a lunch meetup at The George Hotel in Inveraray on Friday 28 August.

Some people may want to make it an overnighter. dunit is investigating various accommodations so get onto her if you need ideas.

marmight tentatively offered lifts to people on the Fife and Edinburgh side, and I can offer lifts from Helensburgh Railway Station if westerners (well, anyone, in fact!) can get themselves to there by mid-morning, say ten/ten-thirty.

Let's go for it. Send names!
