Freezer Run -
December 27th
Sunday
27th Dec, the Yorkshire group had its annual 'Freezer Run', or
'Christmas Crackers' as it has started to be known in recent years.
The hardy ones who
felt they needed some fresh air after the christmas parties, braved
the cold and snow and met at Lotherton Hall around 10.30 for a cup of
tea and a bacon sandwich.

15
vehicles and approxomately 35 bodies set off on our 'tour' of the
minor roads and villages of the area on route to Wetherby.
What a great day, the
sun was shining, and yet it was verrry cold. We had a few brave hardy
souls who came in Jeeps with the top down (see the pic of Chris
Smythe, who looks like somebody out of the film ' the cruel sea').

The
total route was just short of 40 miles, long enough for us to get
really cold, and to appreciate the welcome hot food and drink that was
waiting for us at the Wetherby sports association. They very kindly
opened up just for us. |

You
can see from the photos that there was a covering of snow, along much
of the route. The photos show us at Lotherton Hall, half way regroup
and at the end on a very slippery Wetherby car park. Here's to next
year! |
