Because I'm lazy I treated myself to a day off today :ymdevil:.
So with the zed having been sat in the drive for a few weeks we thought we'd head for the Derbyshire hills :rally:.

The roads were rather wet and mucky to say the least and then around the Wirksworth area there was thick fog :meh:.

A bit miserable for having the roof down unfortunately.
After a bit of a mystery tour,trying to find roads we've not been on,we filled up with petrol in Buxton and headed over to the cat and fiddle where there was no fog and the roads were dry :).

Was going to call in the pub for a cuppa,but it's closed till further notice :rolleyes:.
So off to Longnor.............

Where this Z4 was already parked up,anyone recognise it ?. Was going to leave a card but didn't have any :(.
Look how close the back bumper is to the curb :nailbiting:.

And guess what,the cafe was closed so no cream tea :mad:.
So off to Tissington where the café is always open...........but not today :mad:. So off through the ford,which was quite deep :D and onto Carsington Water,where the cafe was open :),for some much needed refreshement :hungry:.
By this point the car was absolutely ditched,so after taking the quickest way home I promptly set to and washed it ready for the weekend.
Despite the dismal weather we still enjoyed the day,It's funny really as we'd never have gone for a drive out in the middle of January on such a dank day if we didn't have the zed :thumbsup:.

Shame about the weather Steve but it is January i suppose ! Looks like a nice day out always good to enjoy the zed any weather when you get the time:thumbsup:
 
Why not Steve. Wish I could take the odd random day off but not a chance.
Your car was hanging and you should hang your head in shame my short friend! :tumbleweed:

That's what the roof is for I guess,if you waited for sunshine and dry roads we'd barely use our zeds in our beautiful country ;).

Absolutely mate,I'm fortunate in that respect to be fair,a perk of working for yourself.
Got to take advantage when you can while we're fit and healthy,you just don't know what's round the corner ;).

@Bozzy looks to me like the Z4 has been lowered a tad.

@MAURICE THE MARTIAN You got the airbag light sorted ok then Mozz? Did Bill do it for you?

Always great to see you out and about Steve. I do like the foggy photos.
 
It's great to have a day off work :p
It's even better if your meant to be there you enjoy the day more :)
Glad you had a good day @Bozzy :)

I think he wouldn't suspect anything. I bet he wasn't there himself and didn't miss you!
Look at the weather forecast next time eh :whistle:

Looks like you had a good day out Steve. Shame about the various tea stops, at least you got one eventually;). Good to see the Zed out in the mucky weather, if we hadn't been down in Brum we would've joined you:thumbsup:.

Yes we enjoyed it,would have been better if the sun was shining and the roof was down but hey ho.
Some of the roads in Derbyshire are in serious need of attention though,it seems quite a few have turned into gravel :rolleyes:.
Hope you had a good day in Brum,shame you couldn't join us.
