Write Up The Lakes Tour May 2016 write up thread

FANTASTIC - FANTASTIC - FANTASTIC
Massive thanks to Andy for organising and Dave for leading group 3. The people, the cars and the drive / scenery made for a fantastic weekend away. An absolute pleasure to be involved. nice to put some faces to names...pictures duplicate others so none from me.
Happy driving.
 
Just got home after driving back down through Welsh Wales, parted company with @mid life crisis Gary and Ann just below Wrexham (thanks for the company both :thumbsup:) What an amazing weekend @Andy McDonnell well done mate, one heck of a cruise, I'll have nightmares about Hardknot Pass though ;). Definitely one to remember. Great to see all those Zeds lined up at the bottom for a quick photo shoot.
Great to meet some new faces to put to names. Just to round off the weekend I had a lovely run out early this morning and found some quite roads for a bit of fast driving just to terrorise the locals a little bit =)) then into Coniston and hired a boat for an hours jaunt on the lake, then back to the Lakeside museum as I hadn't been in, who turns up but @Low Rider & @Mint, so a drink and natter (and a few pinched ciggys off Steve (pay you back mate) just to round off the morning. Coffee and cake with Gary and Ann and home.. All in all a fantastic weekend, Thanks all:thumbsup:

PS
note to self TAKE SUN CREAM NEXT TIME :(
 
I'll add my thanks to @Andy McDonnell for a great Zedding weekend. Excellent organisation and even better weather, if you can get it like that every time Andy count me in. It was great to meet up with old friends and make some new ones, I'm sure we'll meet on another cruise sometime. Great roads, great weather, great company and great hospitality - what more can you ask of a Zedding weekend. Oh yes of course @Mrs Mint in attendance. The obligatory photos:

Now the words out about your crumble you'll have to bring half a dozen or so I reckon everyone will be wanting some :D
 
Mrs Mint said:
