Looking back over the year what, to you, was the best local highlight of the year?

For me it was the Half Marathon and 10k in terms of the way John, Hendrie, Tom, Elaine and Helen organised the whole event. To the expressions of delight when people crossed the finish line and just the whole atmosphere around the town.

Was just superb. 8)

Of course there were a number of other excellent events but this was my highlight...

Davie, the excitement of that was felt by anyone who reads the forum, near or far. I am so impressed with how a simple idea thrown out there turned into something that was so successful. Everyone involved should be very proud.

Yes - the committee should be - as should the town.

Lots of other events over the year - been a busy one. From enjoying Kevin Montgomery in February to the Half Marathon then the Airshow then the Music Festival its been a busy year! Looks like 2007 will be just as busy.

Any plans to come over?

Would really be fun, I need to think about that. If I can't run it, will someone volunteer to walk it with me? :) (okay okay okay, I'll pay with a pint!)
