Haven't seen the sea for nearly a year and really need to blow the stresses and strains of the past week away...! So me'n'me'scoob fancy a drive out to the seaside on Sunday.

But where? What's your fave seaside town/village/beach within reasonable driving distance from N Derbyshire????

No replies? So went over to A57 Snake pass - dambuster area - Sheffield/Glossop. Stunning as the sun was setting. Not one impreza on that route tho'. Where's everyne been today?

Still up for a trip to the coast - but next weekend now, so let's hear some good destinations? Anyone else?

I sometimes go over Snake on a sunday to see my sister in sheffield.

Stopped @ home today. Treated my scoob to a wash this afternoon though.

Get over this way and to blackpool for your seaside trip. Pick a nice day though or it's very grim!

John.

[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] need more notice!!!

We did a run from Widness to Portmerion (the place in Wales they filmed the prisoner) back in September - what a cracking day that was going over the mountains

click here then on Portmerion Run button but only if you have broadband

drop me an email if you get something sorted and Tia and I will come down in our Sport
Cheers, Jon

Chas! - rather than sitting in a pub for the evening, why not organise a bowling night

Have not done ten pin bowling for ages

Hi Rusty

Cooked dinner while the pics from the last drive out to Portmerion loaded! But it hung my machine. ISDN but no broadband out in the sticks here

Not checked the 5 day forecast, but I'll meet up, whatever.

02 Silver GX Sport - no mods (yet)...

Hi Missy,

Is that the GX Sport that Subaru have put the morette twin headlamp conversion on and the huge spoiler as standard to get them out the door?

Saw one at Robinsons and was very tempted to trade my MY00 Sport in there and then

I'll zip the pictures up and email them to your profile address

That's the one! bought in November when they knocked off some $$$s to 'get rid'. Seen plenty of debate about whether the morettes improve or not, but I like

Chaos

2nd march sunday a RIDE TO SOUTHPORT ************

ten pin bowling it is then ive just been shopping at preston today so southport will be aprox 125 miles from carlisle

is it possible for logistics for you to put together a run in just over 2 weeks to get the masses to come down for the run?
if we can, it would set the new standards for a off the cuff coment to set up a run in record time

i will talk to the cumbrian posse tomorrow night for numbers and report back to you

When do you want to go LIVE with the info

Look at the NBO 220+ in a month with 4 months to go !!

2003 the year of the scoob
