    Maybe one of you...

    I haven't been to site for a while and forgot all about TLD. I was heading south on the Forth Road Bridge on Saturday around 11.00 and saw an RD03 obviously waiting for someone on the hard shoulder just before the bridge. Unfortunately I was in the car at the time, but it was a notable occurance as they're quite rare up here. Could this have been someone involved in TLD, and could it have been......you?

    Ah - do you not come this way any more? Last year Edinburgh was part of the route I seem to recall. I've no idea of the route now. Seems a shame not to considering we get nice long days up here...
