Except that I was the only one to turn up in a Westfield, which led me to suggest that we should re-name our branch the 'Comfortable Saloon Car Club' in recognition of the 80% of local members who prefer a roof and stereo. However, when I got home at 10.30pm, freezing cold and driving this mud-smuggler, I thought that they might have a point: This is like every drive I do in Wales 🤷 1 1 Quote

Benrobson2999 - Kent AO Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 Didn’t go far. Freezing! Short ride to Ramsgate for a breaky once the roads dried up a bit. Spent longer cleaning after! 😂 6 Quote

Popular Post Gary Taylor Posted January 9, 2022 Popular Post Posted January 9, 2022 Okay so even by my standards today was chilly but an epic day out, the roads were mostly fine ish, some had snow and ice and on the way home the lumsden / cabrach road had snow higher than the westy at the sides !! So as I was on my own I went out over the Lecht, corgarf and over to Ballater and to Aboyne then it was the old military road over the Cairn o mount to the the Clatterin Brig cafe for lunch. Suitably warmed and fed it was back over the hill toward Aboyne , Alford and home over the Cabrach Absolutely brilliant to be out and a cracking finale to the holidays 19 Quote

SootySport Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 I guess they need the extra calories up there in the frozen north. 1 Quote

Popular Post Simon Marks. Posted January 10, 2022 Popular Post Posted January 10, 2022 Rather unkindly, I feel, a friend of mine posted on Facebook yesterday. "This is the first Westfield I’ve seen with a beacon….. oh sorry it’s Simon's hat! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣" I had taken the Eleven to a classic car meet at Hook Norton Brewery. It was very frosty first thing, so I was cosy in my two layer race suit and full face helmet on the way up. The lanes near Hook Norton were very icy (I did pass the obligatory upside down Nissan van in one ditch). It was a great morning meet in really attractive surroundings of the Hook Norton Brewery and the bacon sandwiches provided in the cafe were the best ever! Around 40 cars from the 1920s to the 2010s and plenty of great chats in increasingly warming sunshine. One of the organisers, Rob Wrigley, took the photo as I was leaving and had reverted to my usual Saturn Yellow hat. Guess what I am going to be washing and cleaning today? 15 1 Quote
