Anyone fancy the venetian nights in Matlock next weekend (sat 13). The boats that parade are for the children but the fireworks are fantastic. It does get very busy, but anyone fancies meeting up for a pint on sunday lunch let us know.

Mandrake, your very welcome. Please keep us informed of Storms progress. And we shall definately look out for you (I mean your mh) next weekend.

We were going to try and stay in the main carpark on the bend, behind the pub. But in previous years this carpark had 'full' with a police 'guard' moving people on. So we have chickened out this time and booked alittle site, we will possibly wild when its alittle quieter, perhaps.

Best regards
Lou
