I’m sure we’ll find food somewhere. Weather will be great so worst case we have a picnic
Sure we’ll get sorted. Didn’t really want to book our hotel till we have seen the menu as wasn’t really impressed with the online menu. Worst case I’m sure the New Bath will have room.

Re: Lotus in the Peak 2018
A great weekend again!
. Great to see you all! Hope everyone got home safely. Hope Di is feeling a bit better! I thought the venue was great - nice bit of shade from the trees! Must try and get an Elite there next year - did a bit more fibreglassing when I got home - inspired again!

Re: Lotus in the Peak 2018
Yes, a good venue, just wish there were more "classic" stuff. 90% was less than 10 years old. At least i had a nice S1 esprit next to me! nice to see the excel flag flying.
I REALISED YOU CANT LIVE WITHOUT A LOTUS!!! Until now

That was the reason for the forum invite to the promo video call. Organisers really want more oldtimers.CHRISYD wrote:Yes, a good venue, just wish there were more "classic" stuff. 90% was less than 10 years old. At least i had a nice S1 esprit next to me! nice to see the excel flag flying.

Balloons already ordered for next year Jerry.
Great weekend again. Carol and I had a lovely time. Like Pete i have returned home with boosted enthusiasm for tackling the constant issues that are part of owning an old car. ( The new big garage is probably helping too to be fair
)
