Only caught a quick glimpse, but I passed a nice looking all black MINI going in the opposite direction along the A56, heading out of Manchester. Lowered with tinted windows and a few other bits I'm sure...

Also saw a nice BRG convertible with green roof and white wheels and mirrors at the Rising Bridge services near Accrington.

Both around lunchtime today.

I saw two Minis in the Buckfastleigh contraflow on the A38 in Devon last Friday. The first was a dark blue Cabriolet (sorry I didn't wave - didn't notice you until after you'd gone by!) and a black Mini One or Cooper. Both waved at me which was nice!!
Then yesterday in huge traffic jam on M25 at about 11am, was queuing right next to a black MCS - driver resolutely looked forwards and ignored my grinning!!

Been a bit lazy lately & haven't posted who i've seen, so here goes:-

over the last couple of weeks, driving thru Leominster i've seen :-

- Black MiniManiUK MCS with chequered roof & loads of stickers
- Black MC with chequered roof & bonnet/boot stripes - always very clean
- BRG MC with sunroof

In Hereford
- HB MCS with HB roof & darkened glass - almost identical to mine
- A couple of red MC's both with white roofs

Hereford to Leominster road
- DS MCS with black bonnet stripes

Bromyard to Leominster road
- Red MC - very nice smiley lady driver.

I try and wave or flash, but sometimes i'm just not quick enough

Well, I haven't currently got the MINI with me in Bath - decided to leave it at home when I started the second year, i.e. I've been without my MINI for about 6 weeks!

However, I've come to my senses, and will be going home not this weekend but next to retrieve my baby, and bring him to Bath, even if it does mean parking him on the street.

Parking on the streets not good, but I can understand you missing your mini. I know I would

don't park it in my road, enough blinkin student cars as it is, and I couldn't cope with the inner turmoil of seeing another mini in the road( ) but knowing it was student ( ).
Now when i was a lad all students walked or took the bus or pony and trap blah blah blah

Well it is a very quiet cul-de-sac with some nice spaces tucked away, so Cess should be safe.

Oh, and don't worry, I still intend to walk up the hill to uni just as I do now, every day.
