V8s
on tour in the Highlands
V8
members on both the Club's four day European Event of the
Year based at Aviemore and the V8 Two Day Highland Tour based
at the Dundonnell Hotel near Ullapool enjoyed generally good
weather. The two day tour routes were popular with plenty
to see and visit. The second day up in Assynt had glorious
sunny weather. The V8 Dinners at the hotel saw the traditional
eight 4 minute toasts and toasts on the final night from Annie
Yates (to "Prince George") and Brigitte Kallenberg
to "Angela Merkel"! Probably the most amusing toast
was to the "Destruction of the Midge" by Mark Randle.
Further photo reports next week.
The Dundonnell Hotel provided a warm welcome and excellent
dinners. The EEOY organisation by the Caledonian Centre team
was exceptional.

the EEOY and the V8 Two Day Highland Tour based
at Dundonnell.
Early morning at the Dundonnell Hotel
as 40 V8 members and their friends prepare to set
off for home or on further touring in the Highlands
in bright sunshine. Only four miles up the hill
on the Destitution Road to Braemore Junction black
clouds and rain - typical of the variety of weather
in the North West Highlands. |
