First time on the rollers for my car last week, 150bhp at the fly - not bad for an old silvertop :D https://youtu.be/j8VyXKlvID0

A friend has kindly sent me this as a 'thank you' for Dash2 help! Though someone else has got her grubby mits on it already!

Lovely photo from a brave angle !😃

Weather dependant I wouldn’t mind tagging along for a cake stop tour of the peaks.

Hi, yes no problem, I'm in Swadlincote 10 miles south Of Derby and work in Burton on Trent not far from the A38. Let me know if you need any help

Yep OK for me.

I should be able to make it weather permitting 👍

Hi all, Firstly thanks for all the help and advice so far from everyone... yesterday was the magic day I became the new owner of @a15cro’s stunning car! Had a fantastic drive back for around 200 miles! Really excited to get plenty more in and hopefully find a few meets out here in the east! Thanks! Danny

Meet at Hassop Station Cafe, Bakewell, DE45 1NW at 9am SUNDAY 23rd August. Weather dependant, I will bring it forward if necessary. The cafe and toilets open at 9am. Anyone joining us? Best to park in the blue outlined area below, as the rest is 'pay and dismay'

Not a problem. Happy to meet @Alfascozzesi closer to Derby if it suits?

Another Meet, COVID restrictions in place by C&M, Ticket only event and All WSCC welcome see C&M tickets via Eventbrite masks advised and social distancing please stay safe and enjoy the event

Update: Steve (@Weekend Warrior) and Rob (@RobH72), Gary P (@Alfascozzesi) is good for Swadlincote and just needs to confirm his travel plans in next couple of days!

@RobH72 Is over Derby way ,if the courier is going to Derby and I’m not going to be here there’s a possibility I could get them over his way Wednesday afternoon ,Would you be able to assist Rob ?

If there is space for a non Westfield (I don't want to keep taking up spaces if they are limited as I know Maverick is a while off attending) and @Julie Hall - Peak District AO has forgiven me I would like to attend?

All depends what I find in my engine this week and if its all back together in the correct order!

Do keep up!

I think he sold his car judging by his last few posts from last year. Me and Dave on the same wavelength. That's scary...

Thanks for this, Steve and it looks like we're already in luck! @Alfascozzesi is heading to Derby in the next fortnight and is happy to pop down to Leicester.

Ive seen/been sent that too Gary 😄

There is a great pic doing the rounds of Vladimir Putin sporting a great pair of breasticles with the tagline that the Russian vaccine has no side effects, but I haven't got the guts to post it..... 😂😂 Don't really fancy a ban from the forum..... 😢

To be fair my daughter would love that to happen 🤣

I'll let her repaint yours to match, next time she's out with me in the Peaks then 😉

Good to see Charlotte has a better taste in cars than her father 😉

Me too.

Aye, so lucky! 👍

Indeed - it’s maybe once or if I’m lucky twice a year I get to play up there. You are a luck man Gary!

And definitely want to get to Snetterton ASAP!!

I’ll be there, hopefully!

Yep I 'll be there. Never thought I'd say this but so long as forecast isn't torrential. My run home today was probably the scariest drive I've had in the westie. Soo much standing water it became a surf board!! 1 HR 40 mins to do 60 miles

I'm still attending. Already paid deposit.

Here's a pic of one such item fitted-

Hi Martyn I am good to attend on the 11th Sept id originally dropped deposit for both days I take it the deposit from the first one will be used to cover to total cost of September day if we get 15 on the numbers if I owe any more just drop me a pm.

I’m incredibly fortunate to have met you Andy and promise to take care of that wonderful machine for years to come! I’m sure the smiles on my kids faces when I got it home matched Anna’s 5 years ago and plenty more smiles are on the way!! Hopefully catch up with you at Stoneleigh!

A few from this afternoon around Loch Garten and Cairngorm, still Some patches of snow clinging on in the gullies lol

You guys and Snetterton!

I Met up with @Barrie Giles a new member from Bristol with a new to him seight (sounds amazing) for an early Avon gorge run out. The layby in Bristol was lovely, we got going, oooh it looks cloudy. Bit further and its spitting. Well it then got very wet..... i mean really wet, the kind of wet that makes you laugh(or you might cry). When we pulled in for the snaps it had just stopped. By the look on Barries face I'm quite glad I'm was not running a large V8 on 888r 😁. These are the drives you remember though 👍.

I had a lovely drive over the moors yesterday. Even found a lovely spot to cook my dinner away from everyone. Little video showing what the roads are like for anyone interested.

I think your right Kev, I phoned Oulton Park today and they said they hadn't sorted the show car tickets out yet.

Not us I’m afraid ☹️family gathering and the following week as well 🙄 so that guarantees you good weather for both weekends!! take care all and see you soon I hope , Andy and Becky
