I'm still in south Derby, and would be up for a trip out to a meeting. Any of the suggestions so far would be fine with me.

I’ll wave at anyone!

I miss the knowing nod/wave to fellow motorists to show your appreciation of their car.

I enjoyed years of MINI ownership in the past where you always waved if you saw another one. I still give a little wave to fellow Porsche drivers but 99/100 I get no response.

The only car I've ever experienced that with was my 172 Cup. Rare enough that if you saw another there were mutual thumbs up/ waves/ light flashes.

All TVR owners wave, flash or whatever to each other.

Two issues -

1. You look a berk doing it when driving a Nissan X Trail (but then you look a berk driving one anyway)
2. You can go for months without seeing another TVR, then you happen to be crossing the Peak District in your daily shed in late July and 150 come the other way..... whistle

This MX-5 owner likes a wave too - Saw a blue ND on way down to Aldi in Rainworth this morning, I waved and wasn't reciprocated..!
In fairness though, don't think she saw me...!

Thread resurrection !

Two points…..

What happened to this thread? Are any local meets going ahead or what?

Secondly, can anyone offer any personal recommendations for a good local Accountant?

Cheers in advance smile

Reading through this thread there doesn’t seem to be many of us that do have ‘nice’ motors these days, (myself included).

Maybe we’ve all just grown up a bit over the last 15 years or so, or maybe other things in life take a priority these days, (family etc)?

One of the biggest laughs I had in the old days of PH meets was when PlasticPig organised an in-PH Christmas Snotters Run out in the Peaks where everyone turned up in the biggest heap of junk they owned hehe
