WEST OF SCOTLAND DISCUSSION WEEKEND 3-5 OCTOBER 2008
Annual weekend get-together of SRGC Members.
Following on the very successful event last year, the 2008 Discussion Weekend will again take place in the Beardmore Hotel, Clydebank, adjacent to the River Clyde and north-west of Glasgow. The Beardmore is a spacious modern hotel with beautifully-appointed rooms and public areas and a high standard of cuisine. The hotel was built as a conference venue and lectures are in a comfortably-seated tiered auditorium. The leisure facilities including a heated pool are available for the use of delegates. It is easily accessed by road and rail (from Dalmuir Station) and there is ample parking in its grounds.
Glasgow, Scotland’s largest city, has many attractions for the visitor. These include an impressive architectural heritage and a lively social and cultural life. The newly refurbished Kelvingrove Museum and Kibble Palace glasshouse at the Botanical Garden are great attractions. The city centre, with the best shopping outside London, is 20 mins away by train from nearby Dalmuir Station.
Accommodation is in double, twin or single rooms. There is no ground floor accommodation but there are lifts to all floors. If you wish to share a room please arrange this before booking and indicate the name of the person you wish to share with on the booking form, otherwise we will use our judgement. Extra nights accommodation for Thursday 4th and Sunday 7th are available. Please indicate on the form reverse if you need either. IMPORTANT: please note that no smoking is allowed anywhere in the hotel or its grounds.
