Hey everybody-

We had a blast in the UK and now we're moving right along about 900 miles southwest of England smack dab in the middle of the ocean :D :eek:

Met up with the Clarks and Babischkins, rented Coopers, got lost a few times even with Whitley's GPS *laugh*, visited the plant in Oxford, peeked into the "secret" room and visited JCW where we got some pictures and chatted with Mike Cooper, son of legend John Cooper! Went driving with Stuart (goonery) and Dave (ItHurts) which was fun.

More later...

Incredibly jealous of you being on QM2!

It has a lot in common with the MINI - both are marketed on their "Britishishness" despite being owned by foreign companies, both are retro harking back to great all-British success stories and both are far better than any of their competitors! Enjoy!!

I want more details! My wife and I are thinking of booking a crossing on her next summer? Is it worth it?
