Bank holiday in Torridonia
April 30, 2012, 01:06:43 pm
Long-range forecasting isn't looking too bad. Anybody keen for meeting up over the bank holiday weekend and doing some crushing? I'd also massively appreciate somewhere to stay in Inverness on Friday night! Is Monday a bank holiday in Scotland?

Nuff hostels in Inverness.

Pretty sure Monday is a BH up here.

I will hopefully be crushing Easy Trad somewhere.

Answer

Apart from the O&G industry, where we don't do bank holidays apart from Xmas / NY.

We do!

Do you just get them added into your annual allowance?  Thinking of doing a Torridon camping/sightseeing/bouldering trip with the GF the weekend after. Cannae wait!

Yeah added to annual leave, so can't complain - don't have to take the time off if the weather is shit / everywhere is crowded.

Andy, you are welcome to get a doss at ours in Inverness on Friday. I will pm you the details.
If its warm enough at the weekend I will probably be out doing routes, if not I will be keen to hit the boulders.

Forecast at the moment looks decent all week and cooling down by the weekend, could be a good time to visit.
