Wedensday evening the 17th of march, 8 Norwegian Vikings (Me included) will make a friendly, whisky, beer and kilt motivated invasion of Scottland. We will stay at Ferintosh, Dumpries on Thursday and Friday. On Saturday evening we vill be in Edinburgh before heading home on Sunday. If any one like to join our crusade one of these evenings for a wee dram or 5... You are most welcome. Post here or send a PM.
Skål!

Pity I cannot make it but I know you will have a great time and want to see loads of photos!
Remember to moor the long ship below the weir on the Nith!

I'm at Ferintosh the week after you, but I may well be in Edinburgh on that weekend!
What're the plans?
P.S. Dumpfries

P.S. Dumpfries     | On Saturday we will drive up to Loch Lomond, Glengoyne Destillery and Sterling before ending up in Edinburgh. We have plans for a nice dinner and then explore some of Edinburghs pubs.
If you have any restaurants and pubs to recommend I will be grateful.
On sunday we will visit some of Edinburghs sights before we head for the airport.

Now make sure you leave Ferintosh standing. I'm planning on staying there the weekend after you.

Sorry guys, can't promise that the Ferintosh will be standing after me and my Viking berserks have left the town in flames and terror.......  
But I'll be sure to leave you some haggis my friends.

The Royal Oak has trad music on down stairs if that's what you want? spoiled for choice !
