I will be there. Thanks for organising.

Sounds great @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Secretary Will check calendar when home tonight.

188 if I win, I’d like these sent without a return address or note of explanation to my neighbour, whose seven days a week never-ending DIY on his house is really getting on my wick, just to screw with his mind.

On Tuesday 5th November The Blue Lagoon Cafe at The National Stone Centre, Matlock is 1 year old and the owner, Laura, has been kind enough to invite the Westfield's to her PARTY!!!! It would be very rude to refuse, so we are going. Please come and display your Westfield as part of the celebrations and support her. Meet at Sainsbury's, Matlock, DE4 3SP at midday to take the 4 mile journey. Laura is a master of sponge and cakes are absolutely on the menu, if you can get past the cherry and walnut scones that are baked fresh every morning.

Probably like many owners, I seem to have accumulated sets of superceded wheels that are cluttering up my garage. Is there any use trying to advertise old style (Westfield original) 14" wheels (6J x 14 ET20). Their value is only scrap value, but before I weigh them in (after removing old tyres) are there any other groups who could use them (eg old RWD fords)? Would be more than happy to give them away to anyone who could use / refurb them (But living in SW Scotland makes it harder)... what have you done with yours?

Someone may like the look of this to hang on their garage wall . Im presuming it’s a pre lit not pre light . Link to item

Sorry haven't replied, and yes I'm in. Will be there for 9.00 with my levelling up gear 😊

Some of us have to work for a living you know.

"No-deal Brexit 'would lead to a collapse of the United Kingdom', EU president Jean-Claude Juncker says" --- today https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-no-deal-jean-claude-juncker-eu-boris-johnson-donald-tusk-a9148491.html From Juncker......"the explanation is actually in the British camp because the original sin is on the islands and not on the Continent." Would that be the sin of democracy Mr J.? Anyone sense the EU are getting the pantalon marron ready?

🤣😂😂

Anglesey and all seasons pics taken by Anthony Mitchell are now posted in the gallery

Some great looking cars 👌 Here's a few ones from me...

But he's already answered the 'Quo Vadis?' question. To "A Special Place in Hell"

Fair play Patrick. Well done you.

welcome and good luck in your new post as joint AO, does this mean that the black country area now has 3 joint AO's?

The next morning we set off for the Romanian border. Some more of the same sorts of roads - nice, fast, winding corners, with the odd Ukrainian soldier holding a Kalashnikov giving me funny looks. We tried stopping for a coffee, but having used up the last of our cash on fuel, we couldn't find anywhere that would take card and just carried on. The border crossing out of Ukraine was much easier than the one in, although I did get told off for having my gopro mounted on the rollbar, even though it wasn't turned on. The Ukrainian side of the border was the first time that anyone checking the car documents has noticed that the DVLA for some reason decided to register my car as green (which clearly it isn't). I explained to them that this was a mistake, and that the DVLA couldn't get me new documents quickly enough, so advised me to just fill in the "change of colour" box and take it as is. Border security didn't seem convinced, but once they checked the VIN, they were happy to let me through. From that checkpoint, I drove across what seemed to be a very old wooden bridge. I'm glad nobody was coming through from the far side at the time as there was no way it was wide enough for two cars, and I'm still not a fan of reversing the Westie when I've got a big bag blocking my rear view! The Romanian checkpoint was a little friendlier, even though they made an effort to scare me. Initially they asked if I was carrying any goods that I needed to declare - drugs, weapons etc. (I wasn't, so all ok there!), before then asking whether I was married, followed by "why not?" when I said no! But once again, after many photos, I was allowed through. We pulled in to buy the Romanian vignette (road tax) on our phones and then carried on down the road. Unlike Ukraine, where the villages are spaced out with lots of farmland in between, Romania seemed to largely have villages built where ever there was a road, so you just went from one village to the next with no space inbetween. The meant that the first 20 or so miles were slow progress, limited to 50km/h. Eventually we got into a bit of free space, and were able to carry on on some really nice roads again, climbing back up the mountains. Our next stop was Barsana Monastery, which is home to some of the tallest wooden buildings in Europe, including the church at 57m tall. It was pretty much on our route, and was absolutely beautiful. We drove on to our camp spot for the night and set up next to a river just as it was getting dark. The next day we had a hostel booking in Brasov so we could wash ourselves and our clothes, but it would have been rude not to take a peak at Bran's Castle (Often thought to be Dracula's Castle (although it really isn't but still looks about right anyway)). It was massively touristy, and completely rammed, and quite expensive, so we took a walk down the road and climbed a hill where you could get a good view of the outside instead. On the next leg of the drive, Chris was leading in his MX5, and I couldn't stop watching it and thinking how thankful I was for the quantum dampers in my car. His car was being thrown all over the road, despite having some pretty decent HSD dampers on it, where the Westie wasn't struggling at all. It actually got to the point where he had to pull in for a break to get out of the car for a few minutes. We adjusted his damper settings to be a little bit harder which improved things a little, but he was still not having a fun time with some of the bumps. It really made me appreciate just how incredible these quantums are though. Even with fibreglass seats and a relatively light sprung mass, the fact that they just soak up the bumps so well really makes them worth the extra spend for me. We were feeling pretty tired by the time we reached the hostel, so after cleaning ourselves up, we went out for a meal rather than trying to cook something. The waiter at the restaurant also tempted us into trying some local plum based liquor which I'm sure contributed to the great night's sleep I had that night! That was needed, as we had a big day driving ahead of us the next day. You might have heard of it before since it was once called the greatest driving road in the world by none other than Clarkson, Hammond and May back in their Top Gear days... ...The Transfăgărășan Highway.

Nothing wrong with a cheeky question unless it gets you a slap 😉 Can you see if you can borrow a 20-seater demonstrator to take us all home from the Curry 🙂

Yea I am up for it, @Josh Lawson - North London AO @Scarey @Andy Banks - Chairman what about you lot?

Painting 😎😎
