Loan of a bridle

2008-08-29T20:30:19Z

Help needed please.
Anyone going to the Borders round this weekend and has a spare Y-bridle I
can borrow.
I bought a new harness which was delivered yesterday but without the bridle.
Therefore I am looking to borrow one for this weekend so I can connect my
front mounted reserve.
If you can help I would be very grateful and I'll have a boot full of beer

Hi All,
Tommy asked me to provide directions for those who require them. There is a better copy as a pdf attachment for printing.
Just a reminder -
Make sure you have sufficient Fuel, Food, alcohol and Water for the weekend.
There is water available from the river but the taste can be variable. It would be better to bring your own.

USA HG pilot looking for Info

2008-08-19T21:09:31Z

Hi all.

I live near Binghamton New York. My dad was born and raised in
Kilmarnock.
I have lots of relatives that I'd like to visit ... maybe next year.

I wondered if doing some Scottish flying might be at all possible?
... what the rules might be? ... getting a wing to fly?

Any information you can provide would be great!
