16th July
We’ve just found out that for the first time in 35 years the clan have moved the Friday evening dance to Duart Castle (instead of at the High School in Tobermory). This means we will need to provide transport to Duart and back. PLEASE do not book transport. It also looks as if they are not offering an event on Saturday night, which again is usually in Tobermory.
I am trying to rearrange OUR boat trip that at the moment is going to Staffa on Thursday afternoon. I hope to be able to book a full day trip to Iona and Staffa (as we don’t want to trail you all up and down that road twice in one day). DO NOT BOOK A STAFFA or IONA TRIP WITH THE CLAN.
Please go ahead and REGISTER you have to do this to be able to book tickets. You book with the Clan direct, not us.
If you wish to go to Duart Castle on Friday night, please go ahead and book tickets for THE DANCE, we will make sure we get you there and back!
I will update you as soon as I can ….

I can’t believe it’s just a year to go, time is flying by and we’re getting very excited over here in Scotland. I will shortly be sending out invoices for the second deposit and allocating everyone reference numbers, I really need you all to use them for payment, along with your full name. Over the years it’s always difficult tracking money from so many Macleans but not as bad as when on Mull the taxi driver walks into a room and shouts “taxi for Maclean!”
The registration for the Clan events hasn’t opened yet. I will let you know as soon as I hear.
There are just a few seats left on our coach tour which will sell out soon, so if you have anyone you know talking about it, please ask them to contact me. Also, please let me know if you want an extra night in Glasgow before the tour starts, this would be your arrival into Scotland on Monday 21st June. The tour officially starts Tuesday afternoon with a meet and greet.
I mentioned that I have chartered a boat (for around 60 guests), Thursday at 1.30 to 5pm (approx). If anyone doesn’t want to go, then please let me know. The landing strip at Staffa has been renovated and makes it much easier to walk on to the island.
Cheers, Liz and Marcus
