OK, without going too far north -

Galloway?
Eastern Borders? (Too near Edinburgh?)
Perthshire? - Loch Tay, Trossachs, Sma' Glen, etc. (Forestry cabin accommodn?)
Doon ra Watter etc. - inc. Kintyre? (aka "Dandy's Walloper")
Lorne/Lochaber inc. Mull? ("TDM Rally" Or would ferry add too much cost?)

Looks good H Man....but (there's always a soddin but!) it rains a lot in the Lake District sad.gif sad.gif . If we go further east then, depending on the forecast, we can go either east or west. But I'm easy...whatever people want...go with the flow...follow the crowd...
