Format the last time (why change a winning formula IMO):
Most left from the Park about 9-9:30am and others joined enroute. We went to the Brewers Fayre near Scone Palace for lunch, then washed the cars in the carpark. (They have an outside tap, just bring a bucket etc). That way the cars are clean for the shoot, as the Palace is only 2ish miles up the road.
Got into the grounds about 1-1:30pm iirc, and were there til about 4pm. Convoy home.
That way its a whole day out, and would also appeal to folks with kids/ family, so maybe get a few last minute names to boost numbers.
I was gonna go if i'm not nightshift, but dont fancy burger- Scone- home. Its a long run for a McDonalds
