After missing the Hoolets party for a couple of years, it was good to be getting the bikes packed with the tent and beers again, this time we were joined by Marion and Alan on their Triumphs. Other than a little navigation error by me on the outskirts of Perth, the journey down was trouble free. We stopped for a bite to eat in Haddington, as per usual in Scotland the only available food after 3pm seems to be cakes, but needs must. There was a few bikes parked up and folk sitting chatting when we arrived, first things first get the tent up before the beers were opened. We hadn't seen some of the folk in a few years but as always with motorcyclists, it seemed like the day before. More bikes arrived and tents put up made for a great weekend. Thanks to Bert and Laurenne for the invite.
