Sat 21st: Peak district Santa run.


Trevor Little (Trevturtle) - Treasurer

Recommended Posts

Thanks @Julie Hall - Peak District AO Another great run out a round trip of nearly 250 miles everyone of them spent smiling ear to ear. Unfortunately the weather did not hold out and I did get a soaking 30 minutes from home. I will put up some pictures my dad took when he sends them over. 

Thanks @Trevturtle for the doughnuts, lovely.

Merry Christmas all. See you soon

It always makes me laugh that it's the older people that wave the most, the kids are more nervous about it.

Lol.. Charlie said the same thing as we travelled through Castleton. :lb-westy:

Scott, with Glen inspecting his snowflakes, he wants to put an order in for some please as he thinks that they would also look good on our car.

Scott (40ish) and Charlie (14) are a father and son duo that make me laugh. They both had a late night last night and were suitably suffering, clearly they both think that they are 20 years old.

A massive thank you from me and Kate as well to @Julie Hall - Peak District AO and @Trevturtle for organising things.

 

I don’t think I have been on drive with so many hand waves 👋 and smiling faces 😀 per mile

 

There can’t be many car clubs that would get such a great reaction out on the roads from other drivers and pedestrians of all ages!

 

Thanks again and Merry Christmas to you all!

 

From Steve and Kate (and the reindeer)

Oh the roar of the mighty Honda engine, you can keep your Christmas tunes I am going to play Scott's video all day @Scotty72

Love the photo's of Ian playing the pass the parcel music, pretending not to see through the skeleton neck warmer 😁

Thank you has to also go to @Trevturtle, this is your great doo and your great idea, so does that mean it's your fault that we are all mad?

We'll make more effort to nag you out! 

 

You missed a great day as I'm sure you've seen with all the pics above.

 

Thanks to Hobo Santa @Trevturtle for organising and adding a few special treats to the day.

It was good to see @OrangeCrush left a few presents for the lucky ones.

 

Thanks to @Julie Hall - Peak District AO for the great run, even if driven at tarmac rally stage pace 😉

Thanks to the 2020 Calendar Photo Winner, Glen for taking some more great shots. Bagpuss is blushing with all the attention.

 

I'll get my pics up later. He's a quick video I took of the train-

A video of the towns, villages and lots of waving + a bonus of Julie's rally stage and Richard and Tash's tinsel dilemma.

A great run out as always, thank you

 

 

Happy Christmas

 

What a great car club
