Eyam Tea Rooms are open on Sundays and do lovely toasted teacakes! Takeaway sandwiches (and loads of fab cakes :D) available for people not ordering picnics. About 10 minutes walk from the sports field parking. If it's sunny bring a hat - no nice trees to shelter under :D

No : but it did give an opportunity for some piccies of cars DRIVING in the Peak rather than standing in a field:

Thanks for the pics Tony. Claire and I enjoyed the event and the company.

The new venue was good Shaun. It was just a playing field but because it was in the village we had access to the shop and cafe which was handy as well as being able to enjoy the historic village itself. The breakfast sarnie stop was a vast improvement over Hassop Station. The staff at the hall were really efficient. Top marks to the MLOC team

Great Weekend! Good company, good food, good accommodation and great cars - what more do you want. Was good to catch up with Alan Moss and one or two others I haven't seen for a while.
Great photo's Tony. I noticed people taking pictures but didn't realise you were one of them :roll:

Sounds good, didn't realise they had changed the breakfast venue too.

Hopefully Carol and I will be able to attend next year........... you know, the year that @Pete Boole arrives in his finished Elite :P )

Seconded, took it to village green cricket match yesterday evening with dog. Perfect.

Changing +2 clutch hydraulics between Sprint weekends, today, not quite so perfect.

Waiting on drive shafts for 'Europa', frustrating.
