The Mints in the Peaks

[Mint]

Well, the sun was shining, the Zed was ready and we needed a run out. It would have been rude not too. A 130 mile top down afternoon of fun. Up to 'The Old Hall' tea room @ Hope via Longnor for a late lunch, then round the Hope Valley loop, up to Lady Bower reservoir and home via Bakewell and Ashbourne. Top down all the way and spotted by Moz (@MAURICE THE MARTIAN), in Hope somewhere. Photos to prove our run out:

Already got my 1st stone chip Jim. But..she's a car, she needs to be driven. Not cooped up in a garage.

Good point Jim, I was going to comment on the dirty paintwork, mind you, it wouldn't have been like that when they left home.

The first chip is like your first love, you won't forget it.

Actually.................not quite a bad as that but not sparkling clean. I did throw a bucket of water over her when we got home.....just to show there was no ill feeling

She's all clean now ready for tomorrows adventure.

No, it'll shout at you every time you go near the car, but as you say a car needs to be used Dave.
