Write Up The Mints in The Peaks...again

[Mint]

The day was clear and dry, if a bit chilly. Nothing a hat and the heater in the Zed and heated seats couldn't cope with. It would have been rude not to go out for a run to clear out the cobwebs. The Zed hasn't been out since we were out with @Bozzy just over three weeks ago. So out into our local playground, the Peak District. We had a great drive up to Hope via Waterhouses, Butterton Longnor, Millers Dale and lunch at The Old Hall Hotel then back via Eyam, Bakewell and Ashbourne. A great top down day out with superb weather and to think I used to SORN her in November. Some pics to prove we were out:

Great pics, hardcore zedders

 

[Low Rider]

I stepped outside while at work today looked up at the clean crisp blue winter sky and thought how nice it would be to be out and about.
Just wish I could have joined you both today
Looking through your images I can see a 2018 calendar shot there.
Thanks both for sharing your day with us.

Hello stranger,thought you two had emigrated .
I guess you've been tied up with that little project at home .
Good to see you got out today,me and Sara had a ride over to Chatsworth yesterday to have a look at the farm shop as they have a marquee up stocked with over priced Xmas stuff,but Sara likes it and it gets me some bonus points .

Thanks Mike, I'm sure there will be far greater pics next year from everyone.

Hold that thought,work has gone quiet after this week so maybe a midweek run is in order.

mmmmm, didn't realise we had to provide proof of the day Tony . Will have to go and buy a paper next time. We actually made the decision about 11:00 but we had to wait for the washing machine to finish before we left. You know what they say about a watched pot…. it took forever

I know what you mean about a watched pot mate. Worth it for those pictures.
