Lotus Scotland,

Anyone near Perthshire, today come along to the Red House Hotel, Coupar Angus.

We are meeting there for our end of season chat. Your Lotus car is not a requirement. All Lotus owners, enthusiasts are more than welcome.

1300 hrs in the car park. Carvery is available in the hotel.

 

John & Wendy.

Oooh, just down the road too. Will have to see if I can escape the list of jobs SWMBO had for me to do today.

Lotus Evora+Scottish Roads+Nice dry day+other Lotus enthusiasts=heaven

Andy, get yer a++se down there so that I can see first hand that you are looking after that car.

 

John.

Oh bugger, well it needs a wash, so don't spank me for having a gazillion dead flies plastered all over the front. It does get used you know!

[johnpwalsh]

We will be there in Wendy's M100 as the Yellow Peril is stuck in the garage with a knackered rear wheel bearing, the aftermath of a 1500 mile run down South then another 300 up North. All parts arrived while I was away so now the strip and rebuild can start, engine out, seals, belts etc all to change ready for a new year.

See you there, oh and dead flies are allowed, it proves she moves now and again.

Well nice little run down to Coupar Angus this afternoon and lunch at the Red House hotel which again was very nice, thanks to the Chef and staff for our unplanned stop.

Thanks to those who managed to make the effort to come along, especially those new members, you were most welcome.

See selection of cars, nice turn out for this time of year, especially that cracking little Lotus Seven, Oh and the Evora.

Really enjoyed meeting everyone and seeing the cars. Had a glorious run home the long way out over to Dunkeld, Amulree, Crieff, Auchterarder, Scone and Balbeggie. Probably about 80 miles, whereas if I had turned left out of the hotel car park it woujd have been 6! 

No brainer really and the roads were so quiet -unlike my howling banshee of an exhaust 

[johnpwalsh]

Hi Andy, it was almost a pleasure to meet you at last. Ah well at least the car is being used for what she was built. Next time we come down we will give you a shout and show you a proper car, the S3. Glad you managed to come along and meet some like minded people though. Now go t

get them tickets booked or SWMBO will ban you from your next blast.

 

John & Wendy.

[C8RKH]

Haha. Yes I got my ear bent almost off for not getting back home till 1700!  But boy that drive was worth the grief!

Love to see the yellow peril and hope you and Wendy enjoyed the day.

All the best

[johnpwalsh]

Strange thing that, you left before us and we had a two hour drive North. AND we were still home before you.

As a matter of interest that little valce we were playing with on Wendy's car decided to work all the way home and she was purring along nicely, all within limits of course.

 

Cheers.

[C8RKH]

Oooh, bet that was a nice drive home yhen. Lurvely!
