Default TOTB VII - Any Scottish folk going?

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone from Scotland is planning on attending TOTB this year. Pat Doran's RS200 is making an appearance :twisted:

The event is Sun 27th July.
Tickets £20 on gate (£15 if bought in advance).

Cheers,

Agar

FordFair is the Sunday after (3.8.08) - i can't make FF this year, so fancy TOTB instead.

Euan - how long does it take from Glasgow to get there? Hoping to get up early and drive down for it starting on Sunday.

Cheers
