Evening all, 

 

On route tomorrow I will be passing worksop or Mansfield depending on what route I pick, I was just wondering if anyone would like picking up (providing your not too far off route)so you can have a drink or two, there’s only my in the car so there is room.

 

P.S 

first come first served.

 

see you all there tomorrow 😁

@AndrewBClarke thank you and Clare very much. We’ve really enjoyed it and appreciate all the effort and little touches you’ve done for us. What a great way to start the Christmas celebrations with all our Peaky friends.

Indeed, a superb day, great morning out in the peaks, with a wonderful Christmas do afterwards. Thanks Andrew and Clare for all the hard work organising and making it work!!

All ready for the Peaky Blinders!! 
Then the entertainment arrived 🤪

 

Played a few silly games - @Jakejmagee won the Westfield Sports Car sponsored pass the parcel car umbrella and @Trevor Little (Trevturtle) - Treasurer won the new logo cap. I clearly wanted these but couldn’t win my own game ☹️

 

 

Thanks @westfield cars for your generosity. 
 

Bottles were won by @si_salisbury and ? (Can’t remember - part of getting old)

 

Dinner was served and all seemed to enjoy even the Queen of Cakes @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative  was caught eating a proper meal. 

 

 

 

 

Then the @Toybox Specialist Cars sponsored bingo stripe game. @Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO and @BillyPee’s wife Sarah,won the stickers, and @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman and @ianali won the mugs. Janette, @Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO’s wife won the Toybox key fob and immediately passed it on to Ian with ‘Happy Christmas’. It appears that he now has this years present. 
 

Clare would like to say thanks to @HB46443 for the flowers. Really appreciated.
