Can't make the next couple if weeks as I'm off down the grand canyon on a rubber ring.

 

That’s one way to sort out the haemorrhoids!

Just been told I’ve got to finish emptying our storage unit tomorrow so won’t be able to make it tomorrow.

 

However the £100 a month I’ll be saving will help pay for shiny car upgrades so I shouldn’t complain!

 

See you at the end of the months run.

Thanks @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative  for another fab day out!

 

Glynn, Hedley, Tony, John and myself met up bright and early this morning at the A50/A38 services.

 

 

The supercharged duo of course had to make one of many stops for fuel..... making all these whooshing and stabbed pidgeon noises seems to be an expensive hobby! 😂

 

Then we were off up the back roads through Wirksworth to stretch the cars legs before landing at Maccie D's. A cheeky mcmuffin and then we were off on some of my favourite Peaks roads before stopping for lunch served with a liberal sprinkling of banter!

 

Cracking line up of cars, including a stunning 911 😍

 

 

Great to see you all 👍

11 Westfield's and a Porsche met at McDonald's.

 

 

The Porsche Owners Corner

 

 

Ooh, how did that pic get there

 

Some of us in McDonald's

 

 

@aeg and Becky had very kindly helped Hedley personalise the seating in his car earlier this week and here he was securing the fuses

 

 

Time to move it and we had a pose through Matlock Bath, got our photo took there, then we were off up the twisty Via Gellia, round to catch the twisty Elton Esses before having the flowing Bentley Brook road, oh bliss. What lovely roads and beautiful views for a line of 11 cars to experience.

 

Lunch was at The Bentley Brook Inn.

 

 

Hedley has such a wonderful nature and laughed as a tractor was planted on his nose cone

 

 

 

 

The carvery was on and was the best dinner we have had yet in the Peak District. Note to self, come here again!

 

 

We enjoyed the warm sun in the garden and lingered longer than usual, thank you to Hedley for the extra drinks

 

 

See Julian, you do take a lovely photo

 

The Bentley Brook Inn 

 

The journey home was not without issue. Luke met us en route and led us into Bakewell where I picked up a funny noise. We all pulled over (ABC, Big Andy, us and Luke) My tyre wasn't flat but a quick scoot around the block to listen resulted in Big Andy pulling a screw out of it, it was at an angle and had not penetrated the tyre luckily. We didn't make it past Adam's Happy Hen's without calling in for tray bakes and ice creams, thanks to ABC for sharing the Bakewell (my favourite).

 

 

Jaaag at AHH, smelled as nice as it looked

 

 

Thanks for coming everyone, thanks Hedley for the filming and the 'super' noise as you flew past, it's been another great day out xxx

Lovely pics., but that isn't a Jaguar, it is a Daimler! Look at the fluting on top of the grill.

[Big Andy]

Yet another good run today with brilliant friends thanks again Julie Hall for organising the route 

Here's a little vid I'm getting there sorry about the music 

I've got a few more videos I'll post later

It was a V8 Auto to boot. Didn't sound quite as good as Andrew's Westfield (or mine, in my opinion 😄 ) but still very nice.

WSCC run through matlock bath

Another part off the peak district run up via gellia

196 miles of pure fun. Thanks one and all especially our tour organiser Mrs H. 😀😀

[Labrat]

A couple of shots of the cars leaving Adam's Happy Hens. It was a good drive out, even if I did manage to get lost (and subsequently stuck!) within 10 miles of home (very embarrassing).
