No probs Malcolm, thats you added.

Remember the A & B Run is being used by the Doncaster Mini Register in May (called the Braveheart Run in Mini Meets and Social) and a few of us are going on the run with them, so always your chance to do the run then...;):D

[Coop]

Im up for that, I do a lot of work round that area - sorry I attend a lot of work round that area - and its lovely up there.

Grant

[Craig]

That's you added Grant. :D

[ELFMAN]

Better late than never (been too busy to check in as usual). Please include the ELFMAN if there's room for a wee one. The NMS August Run is my traditional 'Pre-Mull Holiday' Shakedown!

[Craig]

Hi Tinga, there are not any runs organised in your part of the country, but Scotlands not that big, so they are all local to you :D:D.

Come along, it'll be a great day out. :approve::approve:

[vintageb3]

Craig

[weefossy]

Graig, be assured it's nothing personal, but we ain't going to be able to go on your summer run yet again.:( :(

Neil has just told me that it is the same weekend as he has booked a trip to the Nurburgring with 4 of his mates and their dads. Our little mini (Sioban doesn't know yet) has got to take their GT3's, Elise 111R, 350Z etc etc....no problem there then...... but Neil ain't driving:D :D :eek:

Apologies again

Must say thanks to the Tractor Owners Club who were out on the single track road and we had to follow them for 8 miles at 10mph..:mad: :mad: They were also on Ian's run recently but he missed them..;)

If anybody has any questions re the run/route etc, please let me know :D

[vintageb3]

Oh!...So you know this guy as well Craig?:rolleyes:

Small world!:o :rolleyes: :D

mark

[Craig]

after some consultation with Marky, I am going to change the route slightly and add a bit of mileage, so that we are finishing at Perth (Broxden Services). Hope to get this change made this weekend and then get the notes on-line for download

:D :D

[Gismo]

Craig, you might want to consider using the park and ride bit, just another 50 yards up past the services, i know that we were kinda in the way for the last Cullen run

[Craig]

yeah, not sure of the restrictions in there, so was going to use the car park on the right next to the brewers fayre/travelodge type place....:D

[AndyP & Lenore]

We've used the services car park a few times. never really felt we were in the way. But that was usually starting early Sunday morning, rather than finishing on a Sunday afternoon. The three runs that come to mind are Seany's run in Feb 2004, Jule's and Rob's run in August 2004, and the joint BMW forums NMS meet in 2005 or was that 2006?

Anyway, Seany's run had over 30 cars and it was fine.

And I'm guessing there won't be any toilets at the Park & Ride.:( :o

A.;)

[RyanK]

Cannot wait for this :D

Around 40 Minis ... gonna be nuts!

[Scottie]

by the time my motori s parked they will be no room for any mini's:rolleyes:

Would I be able to meetchas somewhere along the route down, maybe Stracathro?:D

Gonna be great especially if the weather is good :D

[Craig]

Could I make a request that if you are going to arrange convoys to the start (which is a GREAT idea by the way:D ) that you PLEASE create a new thread for it, so that this thread doesn't get jammed with these conversations.

thanks

:D :D

PS - adding another bit of road being added to the route... :D ;)

Is there room for a new face? Will be my 1st adventure !

Lynn

[Craig]

Lynn,

no problem, thats you added to the list.

:D

[Craig]

A slight change made to the route on Saturday night and the finish time will now be nearer 5pm, hope that is ok for you all, just wanted a few more MINI roads in there. :D

The start time is still the same.

Details on first post. :D

The run notes are finalised and will be available in a few days. ;)

[tonyjac]

hi craig are you getting cool stickers made up as on the A+B runs,my windae could be doing with another cool sticker:p :D

[Craig]

Sadly Toni, the stickers is a no go...:(

Our sponsor who used to do them for us, is no longer a sponsor and as such would mean that someone would have to pay for them.

I have paid for stickers once before, but thought it excessive to organise a run (with the costs involved with that) and then pay £70 for stickers out of my own pocket. :o

I also think it's not practical to ask everyone on the run to pay money to attend a run (to pay for stickers) as since I have been a member since 2003 this has never happened (to my knowledge anyway..) Scratch that, I did charge a small fee for stickers on the Oxford Run 2006..;)

Sorry Toni (and everyone else that looks forward to getting stickers on the bigger runs) but that's how it is..:o :( If the consensus is that there should be a charge for each run to cover stickers, then this may be introduced (with Calums approval obviously).

[Julz]

Nice to see you're going over the moulin moor, one of my favourite roads and the whole point behind the Harvest Run years ago!! Might try and see you guys as you blast along the A93 past the beech hedges as we live not far from there at all! Would love to do the run but it's a bit long for taking Craig and plus Rob's on call!!

Enjoy guys, there's some fab roads on this run!!;) :D

[Craig]

you could just do a bit of it... ;)

[Julz]

Have been considering meeting you in Pitlochry and going on from there! It would only be me and the ickle one (the ickle ickle one, not Rob!) incase he got called out! Will try and get back to you!!:cool: :D

[AndyP & Lenore]

Nice to see you're going over the moulin moor, one of my favourite roads and the whole point behind the Harvest Run years ago!!

My Brother Ian now lives in Enochdhu. I remember the Moulin road from the Harvest Run. Cool road.;) :D :D :D

I lived in Pitlochry for 5 years or so as a kid. Great town.

I've been fighting a flu/throat bug for about a fortnight now (I don't think it's contageous), so if I look even worse than usual on Sunday, and talk even more nonsense, cut me some slack - don't want to miss this run. If I can go to my work, I can go out to play with the MINIS! Any Doctors in NMS? Any Nurses? Or even just the uniform..............

[Craig]

Glad your not letting MAN FLU stop you coming Euan, your a trooper. :D :D

[ELFMAN]

Man Flu? This is Superman Flu...... and Spiderman Throat..... and all me joints are sore....... I'm coming out in sympathy with your car Craig! My folks have been trying to trade me in for 44 years - you should see MY depreciation!

See y'all on Sunday (In'ch Allah). See the Lanarkshire crew at Hamilton Services.

Craig, I'm really sorry, but I'm going to have to put in my apologies for tomorrow. I've been hanging on, taking lots of stuff to shift this throat/general 'Lurgy' thing, but it's not retreated enough to be safe to drive any distance. I'm getting coughing fits which could be disastrous at the wheel. Also getting wee dizzy spells (what's new?), so I'm out. Well p*ssed off, as I've kept going to work with this for 2 weeks!!!!! That'll teach me..... Have a safe, fun run everybody - I'll be with you in spirit.

Sounds like it was a great day out.

Sorry I couldn't get along big man...my day started at 5.00am in Portlaoise, Eire, a hour and a half south of Dublin and I was starting to fall asleep by 11.45am when I got home to Fife. Just hate flying these days...its so time consuming and tiring. Just getting old I guess:rolleyes:

Was really Peed off I didn't get on this one.

Roll on the Borders Run!...I need some quality Mini time!

Really sorry I missed the run folks, I knew it would be a cracker. I would've lasted about 20 mins as a driver and about another 20 as a passenger... Needless to say I'm at my work again today. I must sort out this “Life Balance” thing. Still wonky. Still Scunnered. Glad you all had a good time though. Not jealous at all, oh no, not me.......... B*GGER.

Pity I missed this run :mad: BUT i was thinking about you all while scrapeing some of the walls in my house in preperation for its full makeover...

Craig dont worry I'll be at your next event!! :D
