Hello Folks,
I will make the trip from Dublin in "Milly" - the Millennium (MY2000) x308.
Any one else fancy the spin from the RoI?
Those in the south meet at Dublin Airport Hotel and then to Belfast. Ferry to Cairnryan on Saturday the 6th and overnight in Glasgow or Stirling.
Return on Sunday on either the 19:30 or 23:00 ferry.
WS

Please note this is just for reference purposes and to give an idea of what to expect on the day and may be subject to change.

Meet at Stirling services anywhere between 8.30 - 9.00am, the earlier the better. This will be a brief chance to chat whilst awaiting arrival of others.
Ideally I'd like to hand out the welcome packs " gift packs at that time as many as is possible.
The welcome packs are likely to include as follows.
Each individual members "dashboard info" doc ( see attached ) and also name badge for the day, this will help everyone to get acquainted quickly and easily, also a good tool for those of us with failing memories..lol
Hopefully there will also be forum decals, possibly pens and keyrings etc as well as useful literature / leaflets from those generous companies sponsoring the event.

Leave Stirling services as close to 9am as possible for the drive to Glen Turret, should take around 30- 40 mins meaning we'll arrive around 09.45am and get the cars parked up.
We can all have a chat / catch up get to know you session ( nice and friendly and informal ) in and around the distillery which opens around 10am
There should possibly be tea / coffee available and perhaps late breakfast for those that want to take advantage. The food is excellent and pricing reasonable

10.45 - 11.00 am approx. - Around this time it might be a good opportunity to introduce Taggarts employee with the new XE. I'm sure there'll be plenty of opportunity to view the car inside n out and ask any questions, perhaps express any interest and or arrange for future test drives.

During this time I will be making everyone aware of the fantastic raffle prizes we have available, to date.....

As above under SPONSORS UPDATE!
There may be others to add shortly, so watch this space!!

Although the whole event / day is FREE for everyone, I intend to ask anyone that's interested to pay £1 per raffle ticket for each prize they're interested in.
ALL funds, which could be considerable will then be added together and everyone who entered will gain entry to a final FREE draw, with 2 winners, total prize fund split around 70/30 so giving someone a nice cash sum. This will perhaps pay for their fuel for the day!
Some considerable time will be taken to gather all / any raffle tickets and work out the draw, this to take place later.

GlenTurret Distillery - Tours of the distillery showing the processes including 2 whisky tastings are available ( obviously for non drivers ) see attached documents for info on times and pricing

Hi all,
this event certainly seems to be growing arms and legs, onwards and upwards!

There is a chance that Jaguar may want to be involved to some degree, awaiting feedback on that.

There also may yet be another 2 or 3 sponsors coming forward, still working on that, to be advised......

Meeting:
Some of you have advised that you will make your own way to Glen Turret distillery, that's fine, we'll see you there.

Convoy & route:
We'll be leaving Stirling services Stirling services (Moto) M80/M9 Jctn 9 Pirnhall, Stirling FK7 8EU Tel 01786 813614
around 9am, so I suggest getting there from around 8.30 onwards if possible.
The preferred route is leaving Stirling services onto the A9 towards Perth, past Dunblane then exiting onto the A822 towards Greenloaning / Braco.
Staying on the A822 heading through Muthill and on to Crieff.
Through Crieff up to the T junction turning left on to the Comrie road ( A85 ) the turning right onto Turretbank road towards the distillery ( signposted ) and arrive at destination.


You can of course elect to make your own way there if you wish.
Glen Turret Distillery Crieff - Glenturret Distillery, The Hosh, Crieff, Perthshire, PH7 4HA Tel 01764 656565

Travelling in convoy - I'd ask everyone to please bear in mind local / national traffic laws and consider other road users at all times.

There's no racing, no time trials and no set route as such, everyone is free to make their own way if they prefer. We're not rallying, there's no prizes for arriving first etc and so there should be no issues

More info to follow as I have it........

Specifically for the X350 owners.

I have the chrome headlight bezels removed from my X358, still in good condition and FREE to a good home, to anyone that wants them, see my thread below.

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xj-x350-x358-xj6-xj8-xjr-28/free-headlight-chrome-bezels-good-home-129857/

A simple post / pm is all that's required for anyone that may want them.

Then all I have to do is to remember to bring them along on the day

Thanks

Date set - Sunday 7th June

SPONSORS UPDATE:
Mackie's Transmissions: The only A1 rated ZF GB supplier / remanufacturer in Scotland has very kindly donated a "FREE transmission service voucher" with a £300.00 value
Several members of both this and the UK forum, including myself have used Mackies with excellent results. www.mackie-transmission.com
This will be raffled off on the day with proceeds going back into the pot for a prize draw. See the last visit to Mackie's here LINK
SNG Barratt: Have very kindly offered a £25.00 gift voucher for their massive range of parts available, not forgetting their superb parts catalogues made available free for members. They have also added one of their SNG Barratt branded umbrellas, ideal for any Jag. www.sngbarratt.com
Prestige Jaguar: The guys at Prestige Jaguar have very kindly donated 2 prizes for the day
Prize 1 - A FREE service worth £120.00
Prize 2 - A FREE 4 wheel alignment worth £65.00
Dougie, Ian and Jim of Prestige are hopefully coming along on the day too! www.prestigejaguar.com
Taggarts Jaguar - Speaking to the nice people at Taggarts in Glasgow, they've very kindly agreed to send along a brand new Jaguar XE for the day!
This will be available to view and a salesman available to answer any questions etc. Thank you Taggarts. www.taggarts.glasgow.jaguar.co.uk
GlenTurret Distillery - Tours of the distillery showing the processes including 2 whisky tastings are available ( obviously for non drivers ) see attached documents for info on times and pricing
IB have very graciously agreed to part fund some of the costs for the day, thank you so much IB!
With this in mind I have contacted Wild Thyme ( the catering hosts for Glen Turret ) and arranged for tea / coffee & shortbread for around 80 people on the day, all FREE!
Further, Wild Thyme have agreed to lay on hot bacon rolls from their servery counter from around 10am - 11am, excellent food reasonably priced.
The ambience and surroundings are warm, friendly and welcoming. I do hope you take advantage of this offer

Rough Itinery for the day.
Please note this is just for reference purposes and to give an idea of what to expect on the day and may be subject to change.

Meet at Stirling services anywhere between 8.30 - 9.00am, the earlier the better. This will be a brief chance to chat whilst awaiting arrival of others.
Ideally I'd like to hand out the welcome packs " gift packs at that time as many as is possible.
The welcome packs are likely to include as follows.
Each individual members "dashboard info" doc ( see attached ) and also name badge for the day, this will help everyone to get acquainted quickly and easily, also a good tool for those of us with failing memories..lol
Hopefully there will also be forum decals, possibly pens and keyrings etc as well as useful literature / leaflets from those generous companies sponsoring the event.

Leave Stirling services as close to 9am as possible for the drive to Glen Turret, should take around 30- 40 mins meaning we'll arrive around 09.45am and get the cars parked up.
We can all have a chat / catch up get to know you session ( nice and friendly and informal ) in and around the distillery which opens around 10am
There should possibly be tea / coffee available and perhaps late breakfast for those that want to take advantage. The food is excellent and pricing reasonable

10.45 - 11.00 am approx. - Around this time it might be a good opportunity to introduce Taggarts employee with the new XE. I'm sure there'll be plenty of opportunity to view the car inside n out and ask any questions, perhaps express any interest and or arrange for future test drives.

During this time I will be making everyone aware of the fantastic raffle prizes we have available, to date.....

As above under SPONSORS UPDATE!
There may be others to add shortly, so watch this space!!

Although the whole event / day is FREE for everyone, I intend to ask anyone that's interested to pay £1 per raffle ticket for each prize they're interested in.
ALL funds, which could be considerable will then be added together and everyone who entered will gain entry to a final FREE draw, with 2 winners, total prize fund split around 70/30 so giving someone a nice cash sum. This will perhaps pay for their fuel for the day!
Some considerable time will be taken to gather all / any raffle tickets and work out the draw, this to take place later.

GlenTurret Distillery - Tours of the distillery showing the processes including 2 whisky tastings are available ( obviously for non drivers ) see attached documents for info on times and pricing
Basic tours take around 1 hour and start around 10.30 am I believe.

Around 12.00 - 12.30 pm we can make the draws for the various raffles, announcing the winners and handing out prizes won and a chance to thanks the sponsors for their help in making this event FREE for all.
1pm approx. - Forum banner will be made available for signing for everyone for posterity. We hope to get a group picture of everyone there BEHIND the banner this time...lol

I'd encourage everyone to take as many pics and or videos of the day as possible for posting into the forum thread for all to see later.

As near to 1pm as possible, exit the distillery and take the scenic loch side drive along Loch earn up to Lochearnhead, cut back on the A84 towards Callander and ultimately Stirling and disperse from there.

Here's hoping for sunshine, looking forward to a great day

Rough Itinery for the day.
Please note this is just for reference purposes and to give an idea of what to expect on the day and may be subject to change.

Meet at Stirling services anywhere between 8.30 - 9.00am, the earlier the better. This will be a brief chance to chat whilst awaiting arrival of others.
Ideally I'd like to hand out the welcome packs " gift packs at that time as many as is possible.
The welcome packs are likely to include as follows.
Each individual members "dashboard info" doc ( see attached ) and also name badge for the day, this will help everyone to get acquainted quickly and easily, also a good tool for those of us with failing memories..lol
Hopefully there will also be forum decals, possibly pens and keyrings etc as well as useful literature / leaflets from those generous companies sponsoring the event.

Leave Stirling services as close to 9am as possible for the drive to Glen Turret, should take around 30- 40 mins meaning we'll arrive around 09.45am and get the cars parked up.
We can all have a chat / catch up get to know you session ( nice and friendly and informal ) in and around the distillery which opens around 10am
There should possibly be tea / coffee available and perhaps late breakfast for those that want to take advantage. The food is excellent and pricing reasonable

10.45 - 11.00 am approx. - Around this time it might be a good opportunity to introduce Taggarts employee with the new XE. I'm sure there'll be plenty of opportunity to view the car inside n out and ask any questions, perhaps express any interest and or arrange for future test drives.
During this time I will be making everyone aware of the fantastic raffle prizes we have available, to date.....

As above under SPONSORS UPDATE!
!!!!There may be others to add shortly, so watch this space!!!!

Although the whole event / day is FREE for everyone, I intend to ask anyone that's interested to pay £1 per raffle ticket for each prize they're interested in.
ALL funds, which could be considerable will then be added together and everyone who entered will gain entry to a final FREE draw, with 2 winners, total prize fund split around 70/30 so giving someone a nice cash sum. This will perhaps pay for their fuel for the day!
Some considerable time will be taken to gather all / any raffle tickets and work out the draw, this to take place later.

GlenTurret Distillery - Tours of the distillery showing the processes including 2 whisky tastings are available ( obviously for non drivers ) see attached documents for info on times and pricing
Basic tours take around 1 hour and start around 10.30 am I believe.

Around 12.00 - 12.30 pm we can make the draws for the various raffles, announcing the winners and handing out prizes won and a chance to thanks the sponsors for their help in making this event FREE for all.
1pm approx. - Forum banner will be made available for signing for everyone for posterity. We hope to get a group picture of everyone there BEHIND the banner this time...lol

I'd encourage everyone to take as many pics and or videos of the day as possible for posting into the forum thread for all to see later.

As near to 1pm as possible, exit the distillery and take the scenic loch side drive along Loch earn up to Lochearnhead, cut back on the A84 towards Callander and ultimately Stirling and disperse from there.

Taggarts Jaguar - Speaking to the nice people at Taggarts in Glasgow, they've very kindly agreed to send along a brand new Jaguar XE for the day!
This will be available to view and a salesman available to answer any questions etc. Thank you Taggarts. www.taggarts.glasgow.jaguar.co.uk
GlenTurret Distillery - Tours of the distillery showing the processes including 2 whisky tastings are available ( obviously for non drivers ) see attached documents for info on times and pricing
IB have very graciously agreed to part fund some of the costs for the day, thank you so much IB!
Further, Wild Thyme have agreed to lay on hot bacon rolls from their servery counter from around 10am - 11am, excellent food reasonably priced.
The ambience and surroundings are warm, friendly and welcoming. I do hope you take advantage of this offer

Rough Itinery for the day.
Please note this is just for reference purposes and to give an idea of what to expect on the day and may be subject to change.

Meet at Stirling services anywhere between 8.30 - 9.00am, the earlier the better. This will be a brief chance to chat whilst awaiting arrival of others.
Ideally I'd like to hand out the welcome packs " gift packs at that time as many as is possible.
The welcome packs are likely to include as follows.
Each individual members "dashboard info" doc ( see attached ) and also name badge for the day, this will help everyone to get acquainted quickly and easily, also a good tool for those of us with failing memories..lol
Hopefully there will also be forum decals, possibly pens and keyrings etc as well as useful literature / leaflets from those generous companies sponsoring the event.

Leave Stirling services as close to 9am as possible for the drive to Glen Turret, should take around 30- 40 mins meaning we'll arrive around 09.45am and get the cars parked up.
We can all have a chat / catch up get to know you session ( nice and friendly and informal ) in and around the distillery which opens around 10am
There should possibly be tea / coffee available and perhaps late breakfast for those that want to take advantage. The food is excellent and pricing reasonable

10.45 - 11.00 am approx. - Around this time it might be a good opportunity to introduce Taggarts employee with the new XE. I'm sure there'll be plenty of opportunity to view the car inside n out and ask any questions, perhaps express any interest and or arrange for future test drives.
During this time I will be making everyone aware of the fantastic raffle prizes we have available, to date.....

As above under SPONSORS UPDATE!
!!!!There may be others to add shortly, so watch this space!!!!

Although the whole event / day is FREE for everyone, I intend to ask anyone that's interested to pay £1 per raffle ticket for each prize they're interested in.
ALL funds, which could be considerable will then be added together and everyone who entered will gain entry to a final FREE draw, with 2 winners, total prize fund split around 70/30 so giving someone a nice cash sum. This will perhaps pay for their fuel for the day!
Some considerable time will be taken to gather all / any raffle tickets and work out the draw, this to take place later.

GlenTurret Distillery - Tours of the distillery showing the processes including 2 whisky tastings are available ( obviously for non drivers ) see attached documents for info on times and pricing
Basic tours take around 1 hour and start around 10.30 am I believe.

Around 12.00 - 12.30 pm we can make the draws for the various raffles, announcing the winners and handing out prizes won and a chance to thanks the sponsors for their help in making this event FREE for all.
1pm approx. - Forum banner will be made available for signing for everyone for posterity. We hope to get a group picture of everyone there BEHIND the banner this time...lol

I'd encourage everyone to take as many pics and or videos of the day as possible for posting into the forum thread for all to see later.

As near to 1pm as possible, exit the distillery and take the scenic loch side drive along Loch earn up to Lochearnhead, cut back on the A84 towards Callander and ultimately Stirling and disperse from there.
Here's hoping for sunshine, looking forward to a great day
