    Edinburgh GTG - Saturday 3rd November



    Location, Date and time for our next gtg will be.
    Edinburgh, Saturday 3rd of November, 1pm-ish till passing out.

    Should be a fun, bring some toys along, take some wrist shots, good chat and a few drinks.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    While there's shouldn't need to be rules, as we gain more attendees, its best to set some guidelines so that newbies feel safe, and vets don't get suspicious of strangers.

    -Mingle, it's not a meet if you don't talk to anyone :) (granted i'm quite anti-social)

    -No hangers on/random off forum mates, especially those who happen to moonlight as a vintage Rolex hoovers.

    -Watch brand doesn't matter from a cereal box Neon to Mille we accept all, but we don't accept snobbery, try and integrate with everyone.

    -Be respectful of everyone's stuff, just because you don't mind chucking you're toubillon about, doesn't mean someone else wants to find fresh battle damage

    -Don't mess about with the settings, press pushers, mess with the time... ask first, some watches are PITA to reset precisel

    -Try and have a good time.



    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    if you're interested, stick your name down on the list and details will be mailed out prior to the gtg.

    I'm interested, but there's something about that date rings a bell. I'll ask the Mrs as the Keeper of the Diary.

    EDIT: ah yeah, that's Diwali weekend

    Pity the dates don't work Mike... would have been fun and a couple of interesting new pieces I could have brought along. Hope it goes off with a few firecrackers!

    Would've loved to see them, you've always got some serious pieces :)
    Hopefully we'll catch up later on for a dram and a bite soon.

    I'll be working till about 5 unfortunately so if anyone wants to pop in and keep me amused for a little while before heading around to the venue, please feel free.

    Also for anyone coming who isn't in Edinburgh that often, two new brands have recently arrived in the city,
    Grand Seiko are now in Chisholm Hunter and Urban Jurgensen have just arrived with Hamilton & Inches.

    Might even bring along a sample of single cask 20yr old Springbank for you to try.
    Cask strength so only if you think you're hard enough.

    OK now I’m really jealous. My favourite city (my alma mater) and my favourite distillery...and I’ve not tried that one!

    I wish you all a very good GTG.

    If I hadn't got a busy weekend it would have been nice to have a trip up the road to meet our Scottish amigo's, oh, and some Whisky sampling of course!
