I'm sure your VCR is still flashing 12:00 as well.

Be nice to Steve.....he's been real busy getting all the extra stuff in line for the event.

Here's a recent pic taken up in NH, see if you can spot him.

They WERE sent several days ago... they just took a very long time to get to your inbox.

Josh is in a bad mood after his run-in with the law on Rt2 this morning...
Was that you we saw pulled up by an unmarked SUV cop car...???

[jwardell]

Did you see the MOT clings? Or were they blocked by the large vehicle used to press people to go faster then ticket them?

[GadgetGav]

I just saw a MINI and a large SUV with hidden flashing lights. I did wonder if there had been some tailgating before the lights came on... Bad luck.

Today is the annual "Ride to the Sky" day on the Auto Road, but it doesn't appear the weather is cooperating:

Hogs in Fog...

Just get out of the way or slow down, that ****es them off too. Or do what I did the other night in Hudson, turn down a side street and head off that way. Not easy to do on Rt.2 but don't let them bully you, I don't let the truckers 495 push me to speed faster than I want to go, they can go around me or go my speed.

Anyway you will be safe this weekend in a gaggle of Minis so it will be harder to pick you out.

Its so much that he bullied me but it is my way of being corteous by not delaying them.

Oh God I hope our weather turns around, all I want is some decent weather! And the forecast isn't improving

I believe the noun for a group of MINIs would more properly be " a Giggle of MINIs".

So, what's the plan for collecting MOT photos online? Are we going to beg and plead that everyone put there photos on minisontop.com? A dedicated photo thread here on mini2? anarchy (like usual)?

If it's easy enough for people to create galleries and upload pictures to minisontop.com, that sounds like the way to go.

[MaxaMini]

So be it.

Eat my dust. I'm Motoring. Over and Out

Flickr has a perfect solution to this.

In fact I've gone ahead and created one here. Send me a note on flickr and I can add you to the group. (Flickr is an excellent free photo sharing site...perfect for something just like this)
I thoguht I'd suggest your "favorite" photos so that we don't necessarily need to see every single photo you've taken...I Know I will probably have several hundred myself. That way our personal galleries scattered around the web will still have purpose too, when you want to view more or see that shot from 220 different angles

[GBMINI]

Anarchy will win.
I will post to my web site; Harvey to his; many people have their own site already ... What I wanted to do on MOT last year was put together a "best of", chosen by the MOT people. It did not happen. Maybe we can try that again this year.
