Disgraceful, Yarnfield Lane is fantactic!!!

YAY!! How exciting!! lol My frst spot!!

I was a bit grumpy as I didn't want to be out, I wanted to be at home in my PJ's. I had to take Mummy to the bank Nice Disco BTW!

There was a 55 reg black CooperS at Ashton Moss on sunday, vacant, but what drew my attention was the stupid lady who parked next to it in her VW and opened her door onto it, not once but twice after she'd park over the line in the MINI's bay!

Both car's were gone when I came out the restaurant, but I'd be very surprised if it didn't mark. Some people...

I agree - I had no sleep that night because of the GP qualifying and I was knackered!! Thanks on the Disco comment The guys about to sell it for a Disco 3, and we might be buying it Hope to spot you again in future

Also, a hello to the 06 Plate Park Lane that gave us a wave as we passed you on the A1000 Didn't quite catch the plate but I think it ended in HDJ

A dream can only become a reality if you chase it...

Hardly any MINI owners flash/wave in N Wales. The only place I've been spotted is in a KFC car park

Just noticed you are from Lancaster. Have you joined up with the 'LMR' (see link on my signature)

I met up with Ben and two other MINI's at total fitness on Sunday morning, before we went on the Trough of Bowland run, next time there's a run on, you should come down for it.

James.

Also spotted astro_naughty/Laura at the mini roundabout in Caton on Monday afternoon about 4.30ish!
