Big thank you to @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO & Sue Vann a great day! Westfield owners were treated to, a Vulcan Bomber & a club legend!

Twas not a complaint, merely an observation that when I joined this ‘cult’ I was under the impression that it was a car club, not a hiking club.

Thank you @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO for a great day out, the photos do not do it enough justice I’ll just post this one ……. I’ve just got to edit it because of someone no names mentioned you can work it out for yourselves

We’ve been staying in Bakewell for the last week with a relative, and today had a walk along the Monsal trail from Monsal Head to Hassop Station Cafe where we had lunch. Along the way, I spotted a sign to the famous Quackers cafe, a regular haunt for the Peak District gang. We didn’t stop there, although I checked for any Westies in the car park as we went by. The views were very nice from the viaduct, the tunnel was fun and the weather kind. We saw three rather chunky looking buggies which I quite fancied a go in, and a Jag with excellent number plate in town. Maybe one day I will trailer the car up here and enjoy some of the wonderful roads myself. Almost forgot to mention, having been a committed Bakewell Tart man for years, we discovered the more authentic Bakewell Pudding this trip. It is dangerously delicious I can tell you!!

@AndyD-Yellow Peril I can't take the credit. This was all down to @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO. So thanks and praise go to Martyn for all the effort and a superb day.

Thanks all that turned up. We met at hunstanton for breakfast. 9 in total turned up and then off to Cromer for lunch. Then off to a restaurant 40 miles away after that. 153 miles of spirited driving. Others did loads more. Well done.

Changes made Andrew. @aeg

7 cars this morning, with @AndyWAFU joining us for the first time. Me and @marcusb drove over to the Motorist afterwards.

That may be your observation @ianali, but nobody cares!!!!!

What an amazing day @Martin Aldred - Shows & Events Coordinator organised yesterday.

What an amazing day! Thank you @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO for organising. Really enjoyed seeing you all and the Vulcan too. The Vulcan volunteers were Incredibly informative. Could have chatted to the ex-Vulcan pilot all day. I can’t believe the small size of the cockpit. Those instruments looked incredibly simple for the job the Vulcan had to perform. Andy bomb bay

What a great day!!!!

As part of the club's 40th Anniversary I think the best way to celebrate is to drive our Westfield's, so why not join Glen and I for a drive around the Peak District. Meeting point details and route plan will be posted on here the week before, let's invite the sunshine too shall we?

Great day out and thanks again Martyn for organising the event.

A poor craftsman always blames their tools…

Great to see you've enjoyed the peaks and sorry we didn't get to meet you on this visit. Looks like you've had good weather too!

As an added bonus, I included a route march for the group, too! Someone complained about the distance walked, but they will remain nameless, won't they,@ianali!

Fantastic day out. Very knowledgeable and friendly volunteers. Thanks to @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO for organising. Only mildly moist by the time we got home thanks to the April showers. Mark & Sara

On the way north for a weekend of borders and West Coast driving

MOT today and the car passed, after an arduous engine swap and subsequent emissions issues. Blew it up 21/6/24, fresh MOT today 13/4/26. I am immensely relieved. Victory lap:
