Morning folks. So the big day has come

Just arrived at work and done an inspection of the car. Looking fantastic considering I washed her in the dark at 5.30 this morning

Oh and Mr Jonnywhite, happy birthday and your motor is looking good to go this morning. See you later.

ALD0 · Mar 28th, 2007, 07:50 AM

I haven't got a chance to washmine, in worknow till 4

KillerByte · Mar 28th, 2007, 08:27 AM

Washed mine yesterday, and thankfully it was sunny all day so she never got dirty even during my 90 mile trip back from my parents' place.

There's a lot of low-level cloud today, but I'm just hoping it doesn't rain.

humph · Mar 28th, 2007, 08:29 AM

Rains not forecast until tomorrow morning

Dont worry, I havent got time either, gave it a rinse down at the weekend, but still looking rather grubby. Maybe we should be the dirty ones at the back so no-one will notice!

Not seen you for ages, so will be good to catch up.

Ali @ Woodys · Mar 28th, 2007, 08:47 AM

Hello record breakers.. the big day is here,

I was awake at 4.30 a.m the thought of MINI s running in my head

Hoping everyone is as excited as we all are...

Just getting things ready for everyone arriving!!!!

Nice to see the sun is shining too!!

See you all later and dont forget to be here by 7.25p.m for the police briefing

Curry23 · Mar 28th, 2007, 08:49 AM

Morning all, just gave mine the first wash of the day, will give it a good waxing around 12ish then a final touch up about 6pm.

See you all tonight

Shamster · Mar 28th, 2007, 08:53 AM

I am sure that Alison will post the official confirmation but I nipped in yestreday and had a quick chat:

Registration is closed now. If anyone is thinking of turning up unregistered you will be able to watch but not take part in the convoy unfortunately

.

Dropouts will be replaced by those already on the waiting list.

Watching or taking part it'll still be fun

.

boobels · Mar 28th, 2007, 08:55 AM

All washed, waxed and cleaned inside. Going to get my rims and tyres done at 4 then I am on my way. Hopefully i will make it to the Charnock meet, depends on the traffic out of Liverpool

.

See you all there.

Good luck with your record attempt. I'm sure you'll blow the old record away.

I was involved in a world Ford convey attempt a few years back. We actually got the record but it was such a piis weak event, it was embarrassing! I've still got the photocopied cert. of authenticity somewhere!

BBC Weather for Blackpool @ 16:00 today.

You might not want to bother with that car wash.
