Big Thanks, Babs ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2001 12:22:50 -0400 From: Dame Erin <dameerin@yahoo.com> Subject: scotland Siona: I think you should go on the tour if you want to. I'm pretty positive those age ranges are only guidelines. Sometimes older people generally go for comfort and younger people go for budget. I'm sure McBackPackers thinks the same thing. You will be staying in hostels (which are really good over there) plus riding on a bus all day long. I think that's what they are trying to let you know, vaguely. I'm 44 and I would probably go on this tour. If you e-mail them, I'm sure they will let you know if they positively won't let you go and could suggest another tour, maybe with the same company. I didn't need to get started on this topic. For two months, I've been having age-related hissy fits. What is with these companies? Do I look like I don't want to bungee-jump/skydive/parasail/watch MTV just because I'm 44? :) DameErin Worrying what will happen when she's 50! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

A lot of historic places have been closed.. you just can't walk on lands where battles took place. Make sure you can visit these places as most are closed now.

A lot of > historic places have been closed.. you just can't walk on lands where battles > took place. Make sure you can visit these places as most are closed now. No most are NOT closed. Only Dumfries and Galloway has been affected by the recent crisis (at present)(and hopefully we are approaching the top of the predicted bellcurve). Some places are closed but not by any means *most*. For the latest news please check the Visit Scotland website. http://www.visitscotland.com/ which is being updated with as current information as is available. And Scotland is by no means mostly "open range" and farmland - a great deal of what any tourist would want to see is in cities and towns. (nor do we graze sheep and hieland coos on Princes St) Jette Glory may be fleeting, but obscurity is forever! bosslady@scotlandmail.com http://www.jette.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/fanfic.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2001 14:29:22 EDT From: Dotiran@aol.com Subject: Re: scotland In a message dated 4/2/2001 1:24:20 PM Eastern Daylight Time, dameerin@yahoo.com writes: << Do I look like I don't want to bungee-jump/skydive/parasail/watch MTV just because I'm 44? :) DameErin Worrying what will happen when she's 50! Well as one who will be 60 next birthday *and* has a heart condition, I just got a promise out of hubby that I WILL get to parasail this year --- somewhere !!! We're just deciding on the "where" right now :) ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2001 14:45:39 -0500 From: Elaine Nicol <ElaineN@compuserve.com> Subject: Re: Name of new HL series >> Talk about synchronicity.

Obviously you may be delayed because cars etc going through farming country need to go through disinfectant, it's a precaution. You just have to be sensible, but a good tour company will keep you right on things. The Foot and Mouth is confined to the Dumfries and Galloway area, far away from the Highlands. The other thing is that it does people no harm at all, it seems that some American press are being hysterical about it. By the time you get here hopefully things will be even better.
