You should've come anyway. You weren't banned from driving. Loads of people were there that weren't signed up.

Yorkshire Dales 2008

Well, I've finally had some time to dump my digital camera onto my computer, so here they are at long last - sorry for the delay!
The weekend started innocently enough with a parade...
But drunken shenanigans were not far behind...
The fellow on the right has a Porsche 911 Carrera S4 instead of a MINI - but will that stop Jules from attempting to add more cars to the Yorkshire Dales Run at the last minute? Heck no - her powers of persuasion hath no equal...
Vickie tried to tale a photo of Jules demonstrating her awesome abilities - but this was met with embarrassed reluctance to allow that imagery to escape. She launches herself at Vickie in an attempt to eradicate the picture from the annals of time... fortunately for us, I was at hand to capture that moment for posterity.
The following morning, we assembled for the run...
And Dav52's GP was looking particularly stylish with those large MINI decals on the rear haunches...
Once out on the run, we pause for a regrouping and we grab the opportunity for a few photos. However, if you're running with a navigator, I'd advise you to keep a close eye on them. Occasionally, they'll get confused and leap into the wrong car - only moments after these shots were taken...
But we re-grouped for lunch and - HURRAH - I've found my navigator once more! And she appears to have found something delicious...
We then venture further into the wilderness of the Yorkshire Dales - which fortunately is not too far from a pub. Thanks to Captain for taking over the camera at this point for the shots of Dakini and me.
Finally, the runs finishes at a farm where we prepare to indulge in home-made (well, farm-made) ice cream of all varieties!! The farm probably wondered what had hit them...
At the end of the day, Zeus (on the left) chats to another MINI about the pros and cons of diesel vs. petrol as their engines tick cool...
And those are my run photos! Tadaaaaaa!

All the best,
Andrew.
