I do keep an eye out.

Could have been me i'm often passing along that way.... It was definatley a female, but I know there is at least one other like your EB coop with a female driver in stockton, must have been her !...

Was anyone parked in Great St Helens in the City of London yesterday at 5.30pm-ish? I thought I was hallucinating.. :dreamy smiley: as there in front of me was a perfect chilli red Works S... with spots and alloys... I thought someone had brought my baby back up from Devon and delivered her to my door... no such luck.

This one was an '04 plate and had a very dirty bottom..

Was it you????

How come your mini's not with you??? That's horrible not having your baby with you!

Yes thats the one with the white wheels, parked outside the Church! I don't work in London anymore, am now working in Windsor so get to drive to work every day!!!! I used to work off Bishopsgate in St Helen's Place until January this year. Used to walk to the M&S sandwich shop and would go past that BRG/W MC every day!!! Where abouts do you work?

How strange that we worked so close by!!!! Agree on the lorry drivers! To be honest am glad I don't work there any more as the temptation to go shopping in that House of Fraser that opened a year or so back was so great that I was always popping off there in my lunch hour!!

I always wondered who that BRG Mini was - had visions of the vicar bombing around in his MC!!!

Fingers crossed for you for the interview with Mini. I did 8 years in the city and by the end of last eyar decided enough was enough. It is nice being able to drive to work - even luckier as get parking for free in central Windsor in an underground secure car park!!!
