do u mean studholme ave in penwortham??!
i was round there last night... not that late tho (more like 9:15pm)!... so doubt it was me!... although i did encounter a VERY rude MINI driver on Hawksbury Dr (near studholme) last night.... they must have thought i was waiting behind a row of cars to let them passed just for the good of my health... no flash, wave, thankyou for waiting or anything,... really annoyed me that.
it COULD be Bubble_Goose that mini u saw... see him round there quite a bit!

Yeah in Penwortham. I think i saw your mini back in June - you were driving down the same road i mentioned - if it was you, you were the first convertable i saw and by coincidence my girlfriend saw the same car the same day on the car park behind the spar in Lostock Hall. Was that you?

Keep away from the Indian there - they put the rubbish out and dont wash there hands afterwards! KFC is always a favourite and Pizza Roma. I agree about the car park i always worry that i will come out and there will be a wheely bin in the side of my precious mini!

I get my CR/W Mini Cooper on Monday with checkered mirrors and roof and white wheels - if you see me make sure you flash!

i meant pizza Roma (not casa blanca... that's in town!)... sorry been a looooong morning!

just had a nosey at ur gallery... car looks smart! will defo flash (lights!) if i see you... but if b'friend is driving u may just get a funny look (depending what mood he's in!) as he's not into this flashing lark... was at first but there are so many MINIs round Preston that he just got sick of it! (i don't tend to flash unless i get flashed at!... )

have fun when u get ur new MINI!



PS. i don't know why i put that the black convertible was 'probably' me... havn't seen any other black convertibles in Preston (YET!!) so was defo me/us!

Cant remember if I dun this one.

Pepper White and Black, Cooper S (Possibly Works...but didn't sound like it) Clear lenses, Aero Kit and Spots ....M25 Junction 10ish...travelling fairly slowly (Thursday 9th of Sept around 3pm ish...maybe a bit before or after can't remember) White guy with shaved or very short hair on his own.

Nice ride if it was you, made me decide for Pepper White and Zeemax or Aero for the next car!

While back now but I'd still be interested

Indy Blue - think it was cooper or One travelling uphill on the Bewdley Bypass in Worcestershire near Kidderminster

You over took some stuff in front with me following, then I went past you, both doing speed (of course the speeds were under the 70 for the 2 lane section, god forbid the PCs catch you near the top)

You put your arm out the window and gave the thumbs up and after I passed in PS and Black Chilli Cooper I stuck my hand up and ou the the driver window. I think you went right on the roundabout and headed back down hill into Bewdley on the back road. I went straight over up past the Running Horse pub.

Nice to know ya....I'll keep my eyes open
