Hello Scruff and welcome to FBUK. Your faciity sounds amazing, what a shame it's such a long way off yet still in Scotland.

Maybe I'll venture down your way, there's certainly a great incentive.

Welcome.

Mac brings back some memories, I was stationed there for a while during the summer of 94.

Scruff,

Thanks for the info -- next time I head your way, I'll call ahead of time, and discuss options for a little sporting activity whilst on hols...hopefully you would be able to provide secure storage while I'm there.

David.
