The show was pretty good. Lots of older Mini's turned up but mine was the only new MINI so it kind of stood out amongst the other cars. Had a lot of interest in it . I took a few pics of it alongside the other Mini's but haven't had a chance to scan them in yet (no digital camera). Hopefully get round to doing that sonn and then I'll post them.
Just went away for a holiday up north and managed to stumble across the longest drivable beach in NZ - 200km of sand called a public road

- managed to get stuck within the first 100m or so (damn silly combination of ASC and low profiles) so didn't really risk taking it too far, so have a few photos of that and the aftermath of driving on a couple of gravel roads which I will post at the same time.
