Scotland event - THE FINAL RECKONING

[Jakov Minić]

I will cash out as the others will.
But, that doesn't mean that we don't want to photograph the gentlemen in kilts chasing with sticks.

Well, folks, I made the final transfer to The Lodges earlier today, so barring an earthquake or similar AoG we will have  the use of three quite comfortable and spacious lodges for a week.

We can discuss this next topic a little later, but I was thinking of buying in a few breakfast essentials for each lodge, so that on the first Sunday morning the cupboard will not be totally bare. "Essentials" I would define as coffee, tea, milk, sugar, eggs, bread, butter or other spread, jam or marmalade or honey, a breakfast cereal (muesli?), and of course a bottle of Laphraoig for Jakov.

Let me know what you think but please don't hit me with a string of dairy-free, gluten-free, nut-free, meat-free, fat-free, decaffeinated, sugar-free requests - we''ll need to aim for some common ground here.

"we''ll need to aim for some common ground here "

It'll be the Laphraoig then.

Cause thats how we roll 

[Frank Fremerey]

I will bring my own allergene free stuff. Noone has to bother...

[Bjørn Rørslett]

Dave, müsli of a kind with minimum or no sugar added, yogurt, bread, cheese, jam, and I'm set. Bananas can be bought en route.

[Erik Lund]

Thanks for taking so good care of us Dave! Appreciated

[Andrea B.]

Coffee or tea would be very nice. And thank you.

Laphraoig is some smooth tastin' stuff indeed. You all be high rollers when you roll!!!

Unfortunately I'm affected by Celiac disease. I can bring my supplies if needed. But it would be nice to know whether the local food stores carry some gluten-free items (bread, pasta, rice cakes etc.) or whether I need to bring food for a week. Dave, do you have any information regarding this?

My wife has some wheat / gluten intolerance and will know more than I do about what is available locally. Ill come back to you on this.

[David Paterson]

Everything is finally in place and The Lodges have agreed that we have paid the full amount - it took them a while, but they did eventually learn how to look at their own bank statements. They are very nice, but I don't think those girls in the office are in line for the Nobel Prize for Mathematics.

I am going out there on Wednesday next to check everything over, including wifi, so if anyone has any particular thing they want to know about, now is the  time to tell me.

[Danulon]

Thank you for your efforts, David!!!

Cheers,
Günther

[Anthony]

Thanks, Dave, another stage sorted out.

Some telling pictures of the kitchen facilities.

I guess you are in the line for a Nobel Proze in Patience!
