17th is now on the calendar, can't wait, already thinking of how i can decorate her. I will see if i can get a prize from Worthington, something mini for the best dressed car. Louis u can allocate a judge or do it yourself. What do u think????



i have already made a suggestion and an offer of some free MINI stuff but that was rejected so no more suggestions sorry. No offense taken, realise this is a big job u have undertaken Louis.

See u all on Sunday,

Ann:biggrin:

Hey All

I'm sorry to be a party pooper, but I can't make it now.:mad:

Thanks for organising the event, and for letting us advertise it within our ranks. I couldn't say for sure, but it looks like you will get quite a few classis Minis chasing you to wisemans. Someone picked up our notice on our club webpage and posted it on Ausmini, and it looks like there'll be a few coming from there too. If I get a chance I'll come just to the start, but unlikely at this stage. Bummer too, because at my daughter's Hungry Japs birthday party a coupla weeks ago I swiped a heap of the "Pirates activity packs" to give out to people on the day:p . Oh well - next time.

Hope everyone that goes has an awesome time - Merry Xmas to all!!:D
