All,

Spazz is up from Melbourne, and will be in town this Saturday. So, we're going for a drive over Mt Glorious, Mt Mee, and then onto Malaney. Time permitting, we might even end up at Coolum or somewhere like that!!

The more MINI's, the better. I would propose that we meet in the Maccas carpark on Waterworks road at 8:30. We can grab Breakfast at the cafe on the top of Mt Glorious. From there, who knows?

Anyone interested??? Thoughts??? You can get me on 0429 696 476.

Basil · Dec 5th, 2002, 05:19 AM

Yep, stuff it. I'll be in that. No one want's to buy the car anyway

Is that Macca's at The Gap ?

snoopy · Dec 5th, 2002, 06:42 AM

I be there but I will have to meet you guys later in the day.

Basil · Dec 5th, 2002, 04:38 PM

Could be a problem.......... I'll let you know before the end of the day.

swamos · Dec 5th, 2002, 04:45 PM

Oh dear, that's bad news

Work hard Basil, move those "BIG ROCKS" as management love to call them. The force is strong in you little one, the good cause will prevail.....

BTW, it was Maccas at The Gap that I was suggesting to.

ricci · Dec 5th, 2002, 07:12 PM

Hey that sounds good...What time do you think we'll be getting back into town???

I'll have to be back in Brissie by 4pm...

Cheers

I have a xmas party on that night, and I have to shut down a couple databases at 5, so I won't be far behind you. We'll only be at the north coast, so just turn for Brissie when you have to.

BTW Australia Mini Man has said he's coming. Sounds like three EB's to one DS (Snoopy) at this stage!! Where's the dark side when you need them?

ricci · Dec 5th, 2002, 08:26 PM

How is Baby Coops going to keep up to Big Brother S??? I'll see you at Macs at 8:30...

Thanks mate

I am currently "negotiating" on my S, based on less than 2,500 km.

I'll have to pass i'm afraid.

Make sure someone has a digital, have fun, and watch out for those laser's.

Good luck with the sale!!

Yep, he did. Groovy looking litle camera, although I didn't get a good look at it. Hopefully he posts them after his safe return to Melbourne.

Basil · Dec 7th, 2002, 05:42 PM

Pretty sure it's a Nikon COOLPIX 5000

Glad to hear you had a good time.

How is the "negotiating" going, have you sold her yet?
BTW had a good time out with the rest of the group, you missed a good day.

Be great to meet fellow new Mini lovers.

Guys,

I'm having trouble getting the pics up...I have decreased the image sizes to below the max but it continues to tell me that the dimensions are too large???? How can this be? They are well within the limits...Any tips??? I'll keep trying...

Cheers

swamos · Dec 8th, 2002, 06:29 AM
