Re: Lotus in the Peak 2019
First rule of photography....... make sure the battery is charged up. Anyway, a few of the ones I did get.

Ever wondered what a hatchback Excel would look like ?





Voted as car of the day by all attendee's.... it was better than it would have been when new though.

Windex ?

Its actually COOPs multisurface cleaner, car smelled of apples afterwards when you walked pasthttps://qeg7na.dm.files.1drv.com/y4m1vaPNYdF1v_BOPldyYMLLiR75epxo3P249P9li7Bs2_rYqKIQBkw8G6xFbAIbgevBTbCYpEzAb5UeBh6laYkKgzItI-CzJb4g2nbd117NWcFKR9Xu2saWnK80MDiGKd7bTiVWC5I2Eu1Jm3q1ShdxgcMFQAs-iNMnp50grZRtTXfB1q5tBF2t1thBdzW--1jkl0R2iLIX6sntcBCK0_AxQ?width=660&height=440&cropmode=none. !!!!

Many Thanks to MLOC for organising a great day out. After filling the air with positive waves and asking the Gods for a free service in the Raffle, I duly won a service

Cut to 4.57 and there follows the Charles Cotton Excel crew (or most of us!!) Great weekend once again and looking forward to the next one - and for next year I will get the car height sorted (already reading up on my LEDA shockers to work out how to a) lift the ride height and b) soften the ride a little! Best Wishes

Re: Lotus in the Peak 2019
Thanks to all for a great weekend once again. We enjoyed it despite our run group leader going awol and the noisy hotel. Definitely considering a cottage for next year!
12 months to fix my steering....surely, surely, next year it will finally be fixed

Bleeding hell, I never realised before but Tanz has a "driving Tash" and "out for a bash and a bit of posh nosh Tash"
The Lotus Eclat, a lot like the English Whisky company: comes from Norfolk and better than you are often told it is.

Re: Lotus in the Peak 2019
We were only there for 1 night but my only complaint was that they didn't lay on any breakfast. £80 per night was quite cheap for a hotel room when many B & B's charge over £100 these days. Our room was clean and comfortable. Good nights sleep until the dawn chorus started. My meal was fine. Lynne not so happy with her choice.Pete Boole wrote:Looks like I missed a great weekend.

The New Bath hotel was better from a breakfast point of view. They got up especially early to give us hot Croissants, tea and coffee.
