Fintray is near Aberdeen. It should show up on Google Earth.
If you find Aberdeen (Dyce) airport, it's about 4 miles west of there (off the B977)
Forestburn is kind of half way between Edinburgh and Glasgow (ish)
Kames...well Kames is in a kind of parallel universe all of its own.. no, I've never been there but I think it's on the south side of Glasgow.

Follow the B977 out of dyce, and just after you PASS the B979 on your right, you'll see signs for the spectator carpark on your left!
Double header on at the weekend, and the sun is booked I hope

I never realised how close to Forrestburn I am.
Next time there is an event on I will wander over then.

Note the marshall behind, already has the red flag out and waving.
If you look at the rest of the photos from the link, you can see that Gary was on the grass and heading for the marshalls post after a big lock-up
(going by all the smoke).
The marshall with the flag is "zilspeed"

That's an interesting statement given you have no idea where it is, or have ever been there
that was a "joke" (Jim but not as we know it). By all accounts it's a fair place (in a good sense) I was merely making light of that fact.
