As we sit here on Friday evening, the forecast is dry so this is on. 

 

Wrap up warm and we'll see you there x

[BillyPee]

Late notice but I will be there!

[Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative]

Great news @BillyPee, we will be on our way shortly, roof is on and the snow has just turned back to rain, so that's more good news 😱😁

[Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative]

Hey BillyP came out of hibernation and it was great to see him and his Boxster, we even shamed him into putting the roof down for the run out

 

 

Dave and Andrew also joined us despite both travelling around 1 and half hours to get here, Dave over high ground too. It was very light rain when we arrived, the snow was confined to the tops thankfully.

 

 

We all disappeared into the museum cafe for a warm and a good chat. When we came out ithe rain had stopped and the classics had arrived so we took a few photo's, waved a hello and took off into the Peak District.

 

 

 

 

 

 

With it being half term I was keen to drive through Matlock Bath, the kids love to see the cars and it encourages tourists to come if there is something different to see, so we gave them a wave along the way. Hopefully they will learn what these cars are and it will spark an interest in the future generation, it's important is that.

 

The driving felt good, we even got a glimpse of blue sky, I extended the route slightly because of this. 

 

With there only being a few of us we thought we would go to a favourite but small pub of ours, the Cock and Pullet (laughs childishly) but the notice on the door read that it was closed until the end of Feb, oh well it made for some nice photo's.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We finished at Hassop Station cafe for lunch before departing our separate ways. Thank you guys for coming out in challenging weather but, hey, it was soooo worth it, for the driving and for the excellent company xxxx

[aeg]

Well done you brave souls 🥶
