Broughty Ferry - chris.biker - 01-03-13
Hi I have been supporting Bob Servant independent candidate and feel a trip to Broughty Ferry could be fun its only 380 miles from my place, anyone else fancy it later in the summer?
Re: Broughty Ferry - ponkster - 02-03-13
where are you based - north or south of Dundee?
Re: Broughty Ferry - chris.biker - 02-03-13
South just of the M1.

I like the mans optimism, but where the hell is Boughty ferry ? I thought it was a made up name.
If it's North of Watrord I'm lost.
Do you need a passport to get there? :rolleyes

Broughty Ferry is on the Firth of Tay a few miles east of Dundee. It's considered to be a bit posh by members of my family who live in Dundee.
When Alan Fluff Freeman broadcast his final Saturday show for the BBC in August 1978, I listened to it while I was on the beach at Broughty Ferry.
It would be a good destination for a ride out though. Fisherman's Tavern or the Royal Arch.

Bit far from Southampton I think. Oh well, never mind

Could be tempted perhaps :-). Just a ride and some lunch and different route there and back ?

Simonm I suggest we take the M6 route there and cruise back the A1 / M1 route, but not to much liquid refreshment with lunch we do not want to have to stop for the loo. :lol
I was thinking a long week end job.
