true, but thought there may be like some sort of male bonding type thing going on, but nothing that is too energetic?
paintballing came to mind, then we decided against it, karting is out as we'd be over the limit, so stuck for ideas.
Holyrood, what is this?

holyrood is the scottish parliament building. holyrood is the area it's built in
maybe boring for lads on a stag do but there's a lot of interesting stuff if you were wanting to break from that for a few hours to look round IMO

Went a few moths ago and had a cracking time. They keep you plied with bevvy for the 2 hours too which is good! I would recommend the 2 hours then ask to do a longest drive competition
Other stuff:
- Also depending on what days in July your here Hearts or Hibs may have friendlies on.
- Rock climbing at Alien Rock or Ratho
- May be boat parties on as well - leave from Leith Docks and takes you out on the Forth for a few hours, Dj's and more bevvy all the way lol! - I'll dig out the link!
Hope that helps bud! New Bar to check out is Electric Circus on Market Street!

its train up 17th, get drunk, then 18th do that golf thing & wander about & get drunk, sun 19th, train home.
Boat trip sounds good.
Need to find out a decent bar / club list too.
Cheers for the info!
is 2 hours enough for 12 of us to whack some balls?

Sounds like a plan mate
best having 4 people per screen so 2 hours will be fine! Decent BArs and clubs in my opinion:
Cargo - next to golf place
Mr McGoos - cheap as chips
The Chanter
3 Sisters
Sportsters
Hudsons
Candy Bar
Le Monde
Voodoo Rooms
Mad Dogs - cheap as
Revolution Bar
Wash Bar
Newsrooms
Pivo
The Outhouse - good during the day but a total dive lol!

Thats true mate, if you boys want a ride I'd suggest Cav (lava & ignite), City or Why Not Or if your really struggling - a little establishment in the west end called Subway...........lol!
Titty Bars, Fantasy Palace - more like a club with pole dancers tbh The rest are pretty gash! No pun intended
