what the devil !!!!!! Was @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative feeling alright ! Should we get her checked out? Has she been cloned or something 🤪 Is she putting you all on a secret diet 🤣🤣 @Andy Westwood would have passed out without cake .

Watch this for a more sensible approach to the ban- Harry's Garage shame UK gov isn't likely to be sensible and will continue to see the motorist as a cash cow!

Many of you will be aware of this book, published back in 2000: Due to it being out of print for many years and rare used copies being on sale for at least £35, I decided to try to track down the authors and see if I could permission to create a digital copy for the club's archives. After quite a bit of investigation work, I finally tracked down Jeremy Bouckley today and we had a lovely long chat on the phone. Now truth be told, I know about copyright laws and my begging bowl request was rather cheeky, so I wasn't surprised or upset when he very, very politely turned my request down. On the good news front though, he is working on an updated version of the book to bring it up to current, with plans to print and sell them. I've asked him to keep in touch with me with any developments on that front so I can pass it on to the rest of the club. Fingers crossed! Oh well, it was worth a try...

I know it’s unbelievable but no cake was eaten!! Good day out and returned under blue skies.

Well done you brave souls 🥶

Hey BillyP came out of hibernation and it was great to see him and his Boxster, we even shamed him into putting the roof down for the run out Dave and Andrew also joined us despite both travelling around 1 and half hours to get here, Dave over high ground too. It was very light rain when we arrived, the snow was confined to the tops thankfully. We all disappeared into the museum cafe for a warm and a good chat. When we came out ithe rain had stopped and the classics had arrived so we took a few photo's, waved a hello and took off into the Peak District. With it being half term I was keen to drive through Matlock Bath, the kids love to see the cars and it encourages tourists to come if there is something different to see, so we gave them a wave along the way. Hopefully they will learn what these cars are and it will spark an interest in the future generation, it's important is that. The driving felt good, we even got a glimpse of blue sky, I extended the route slightly because of this. With there only being a few of us we thought we would go to a favourite but small pub of ours, the Cock and Pullet (laughs childishly) but the notice on the door read that it was closed until the end of Feb, oh well it made for some nice photo's. We finished at Hassop Station cafe for lunch before departing our separate ways. Thank you guys for coming out in challenging weather but, hey, it was soooo worth it, for the driving and for the excellent company xxxx

Taking this article at face value, hopefully the government will exclude kit cars from the IC engine ban in 2030... https://gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.msn.com%2Fen-gb%2Fcars%2Fnews%2Fthe-25k-car-that-can-beat-ed-miliband-s-petrol-ban%2Far-AA1z6k21%3Focid%3Dwinp2fptaskbarhoverent%26cvid%3D86c0c0b38d6c4f228119d720b8fc9aa5%26ei%3D37&data=05|02||9930f5f285984cd1d91408dd4f665210|84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa|1|0|638754023094465184|Unknown|TWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D|0|||&sdata=hWjgTwhYhhXguxAdsqlmi2kLFieinJtVo0s5wMt3uk0%3D&reserved=0

The museum was on BBC Breakfast this morning, they were comparing modern (too bright) headlamps with older pre LED ones.

Sorry Robin, not been too well, catch up next month all being well.

Four of us went out for breakfast this morning, but no Westfields. In fact, only one Westfield owner! I nearly got mine out, but at 0° I thought better of it.
