Great couple of days with surprisingly good weather. Great run out organised by P&P Boole. Good to see everyone one again, seemed like a lifetime ago we all met up before.
Hotel once again a disappointment but sure we’ll sort something better for next year.

Carol and I had a great time. 4 hour journey each way but always worth it.

Thanks again to Pete and Pauline for organising the Sunday run, Winatts Pass is finally crossed off the bucket list :lol: .

Only spent 2.5 hours cleaning up the car today, I'm slacking in my old age........

Just to say Claire and I really enjoyed the company and thanks to Mr and Mrs Boole for sorting out a very scenic run on the Sunday. I cured the horrendous brake judder on my car at home with a replacement caliper securing bolt - I blame the idiot who fitted new discs and pads last autumn... :oops: I'm awaiting delivery of two new front springs and a set of four brand new caliper bolts this week

ps Claire and I are still waiting for the second drink we ordered at The New Bath Hotel. Got to give the Premier Inn Matlock 10/10 though. As an example when we got back after the meal on Saturday night we found all the parking spaces were full. I asked the receptionist if she had a suggestion on where the best place to park nearby would be and she promptly moved her Mini out of the staff parking slot and gave it to us.

Glad you got home safely! Good to hear you've sorted the brakes. We've had a questionnaire from the New Bath Hotel. We'll be filling it in!!
