I've been driving all day and have just arrived in Buxton. My wife and I will be at the Taj Mahal, 35 High St, Buxton SK17 6HA at 7:30 pm and will ask for a table for 4 for "LEC".
So that's the two of us, Tuga and who else? Mazr?
See you at 7:30. As I don't know who else is coming or when, we're just going to order when we arrive and start eating.

I'm there. But apparently I'm the only one here. Unless I'm at the wrong place.... Or wrong time.

just got home,
Thanks Gareth for organizing the event, the drive was most pleasant (specially with Pete leading the way)
was a pleasure to meet all the attendees (and respective partners)
was a shame we didnt get more people involved but im sure next time there will be more interest. (ill be sure to advertise)
Finally, Thanks Pete for leading the way, i surely would not be able to enjoy the trip this much trying to follow directions on my own.

Great day, thanks to Gareth's organisation and Kim's forbearance! Joe, you owe more to Rachel for the navigation than me and glad you could enjoy some of the super countryside of the Peak. Five hours of pootling around with the roof down was exceptional and what good unplanning to meet John and Maggie in the Chatsworth farm shop cafe.
Good food and company in the brasserie in Buxton was a pleasant finish to the day.
Shame everyone else missed it, could be a fantastic day out for many M100s.

Yes, I'm gutted I couldn't make it. Clashed with Goodwood Revival and I was exceptionally lucky to get a full access entry and spoilt rotten by the Brabham team.
Generally I suspect this time of year, September, should make a good diary for most and I shall endeavour to make the next one!
Any pictures to share??
Here's a cheeky one of me in the BT26

Well I've made it - where is everybody ??!!
Had a couple of days driving around the Peak District - some nice roads, some not so nice roads. Weather kept good and only rained when I left.

Lifesavers Merv - you'd be a tad late and may need Revival tablets
