GOGADGET · Dec 29th, 2006, 11:50 PM

THE BACKGROUND

As most would be aware Mini-Trainer (Rams) is out here in Sydney on holiday with a couple of his mates, Rams is a budding Videographer and has filmed many MINI runs in the UK. Several of us have just spent a fun filled day with him on a run to Canberra filming many of Australia famous buildings and landmarks.

THE IDEA

To round out Ram’s filming we need to assemble as many MINIs in one place as we possibly can, then drive in convoy on some twisty roads.

THE PLAN

To assemble at PITS on Sunday 7th January at 9.00am. At 10.30 am drive in convoy the full length of OPH ( from there we could go onto a longer drive Wiseman’s, Wollumbi etc if enough people wish to participate.)

WHAT YOU GET OUT OF IT.

You and you MINI get to star in your very own movie (please arrive with your hair and make-up already done, I expect the women to abide by this rule also).
Once Rams had edited the video back in the UK we will then get copies. So for the cost of a blank DVD you will have your very own MINI DVD featuring you and your MINI.

Please post in this thread if you would like to be involved.

PS If you live close to the CBD I need 2 volunteers to assist in picking up Rams and his 2 friends from their Hotel. I will pm the address to those that volunteer.

ATTENDEES.

What would you suggest? I am typing on a dark gray background, I don't really have time to work out all the permutations of what others may be viewing the forum in.

Thanks for the heads up.

Nah, I've already met Rams, and to be honest, I wouldn't bother again.

Just kidding. Get on board Sydney peeps and you too can remind Rams of the cricket score. He won't mind, I promise. He's actually a pretty good guy to boot.

Cheers Liam
