| | | Hawick Highland Games & Guid Nychburris
I was looking at my diary and realised that Guid Nychburris Day in Dumfries and Hawick Highland Games will be due to take place while the Wizard of BC is due to visit Ferintosh. How's about getting together that weekend?
We could start with a Dumfries Pub Crawl on the Friday night, 19th June, then Guid Nychburris in Dumfries on Saturday 20th and Hawick Highland Games on Sunday 21st. (Hawick is 53 miles from Dumfries.)

Well done Alex. I am staying at Ferintosh that weekend and could easily do the games on my way back home ( to Cleveland). Alas I would not be able to offer anybody a lift back to Dumfries.
What time do the games start ?

Afraid I can't make it up for this one Alex, I'm the Usher at a wedding in deepest darkest Salop. I shan't even be kilted!

Sounds like a good weekend of festivities I might pop down to meet everyone if it's still a go.  I'm sure I'm due some time off work

Alex,
I am in the planning stages for this - so far so good. I think that I will be able to make this weekend. Are you definitely going to be there?
Regards Chas
