Indiana Jones Movie MINI Run Day - Sunday 1st June 2008

The long-awaited fourth instalment of the Indiana Jones movies is due for release on Thursday 22nd May. The following Sunday (25th May) is earmarked for the Mini Clan's Thistle Run so I don't want to clash with that. So the following Sunday (1st June) will be Indiana Jones MINI Run Day!

Not worked out the exact formula for the day but will include a run, some food at a local eatery and the movie "Indian Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull" at our cinema. Like runs we've done for on-release films in the past, it would be difficult to admit everyone for free (especially if there's a big turnout), but we can discount it down to child price of £3.50.

Update: Friday 28th March.
Did a recce of the route a couple of days ago. The route is: We start in ASDA Car Park, Galashiels, around 10AM TBC. Out to the A68 and down through Jedburgh, over the Carter Bar, down to Bellingham for lunch at the Cheviot Hotel. Then along the underside of Keilder Reservoir, to the B6357, up to Bonchester Bridge, then onto Hawick, and up the A7, finishing in Galashiels, parking up in ASDA car park again about 4.00pm. Then an early evening show of Indiana Jones movie starting around 5pm, finishing around 7pm. There should be time for projection room tours before the film starts. Total route length - roughly 110 miles.

Lunch - organised for you at the Cheviot Hotel in Bellingham. We used this venue for Lunch on the Keilder Reservior run we organised a couple of years ago. The Cheviot do a fantastic Sunday Carvery. The Cheviot's web site is here. (http://www.thecheviothotel.co.uk/foodanddrink.htm) The pic at the top right of that page is the owner slicing meat at the carvery servery. There is a choice of roast pork, roast lamb or roast beef. All come with yorkshire puddings, and your choice of vegetable - help you self- - fill your plate!

Lenore and I can vouch for the food in this place, it is absolutely fantastic and comes highly recommended by your organisers.

UPDATE: Monday 26th May.

Meet at ASDA Car Park in Galashiels at 10AM for a 10.30AM departure.
Arrive back in Galashiels for roughly 4pm. This may give us time for a couple of projection room tours for those who are interested. Can't guarantee this, just a possibility.

Andy, stick me and Jason down. Do you know what certificate it will be yet?

Will do Lesley. I don't have a certificate yet, but I would imagine it will be a PG or at the worst a 12A.

You'll need to get the DVD's out and introduce the wee guy to the wonders of Dr Jones.;)

A.;)

[N12 JLK]

who plays Indie in this film, surely not Harrison Ford as he must be as old as Yoda:o

[AndyP & Lenore]

who plays Indie in this film, surely not Harrison Ford as he must be as old as Yoda:o

Here's your answer:

http://www.reachercreatures.com/fun_stuff/indy.jpg

He still has it in him. And they've set the film in the 1950's so I think he will probably have slowed down a wee bit. he has two sort of sidekicks this time to carry out the majority of the action.... Shia LaBeouf and Ray Winstone.

Depends if you get yer act together and get a popcorn machine...old boy:p

Can i bring a Peugeot 307?...cause I don't leave my car in car parks.

I don't care about Kim's car;)

mark

[ELFMAN]

Put me down for this one Andy - it'll be good to see a film where the star's older than me....... that isn't set in a retirement home.

[tonyjac]

put me down for this please andy:)

[AndyP & Lenore]

Can i bring a Peugeot 307?...cause I don't leave my car in car parks.

I don't care about Kim's car;)

mark

Mark, all the cars will be parked up in ASDA car park at the far end, like we did for the Borders run. They should be pretty safe all tucked in together. it will be with prior arrangement with ASDA too, so their security guard will keep an eye on them.;)

On that basis, would you like to come in your MINI? You can come in your 307 if you wish, but that would be kinda weird when you have a perfectly nice MINI at home.:confused:

And, no, we don't have a popcorn popping machine. We prefer to contract out our popcorn supplies to a very good Scottish Popcorn company.;)

A.:D

[ELFMAN]

Just when you thought it was safe to go for a Sunday run........
Just when you thought the roads would be quiet......
Just when you thought you could come out of church and not get run over by a herd of rampaging MINIS.....
THEY'RE BACK
THEY'RE CRAZY
SOME OF THEM ARE OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER.....
THEY'RE......... THERE!

NEWMINISCOTLAND AND THE EXHAUSTS OF DOOM II

If you don't like the heat - fit an uprated intercooler - Jeremy Clarkson
I laughed till I realised they were serious, then I ran away - Jonathan Ross
I particularly enjoyed ELFMAN's fantasy kitchen sequence, but not half as much as he did - Nigella Lawson

Coming to a (top-notch family-run) cinema near you on June 1st.
Don't miss it.... and just pray that they miss you....

[AndyP & Lenore]

Put me down for this one Andy - it'll be good to see a film where the star's older than me....... that isn't set in a retirement home.

That's you added Elfman. Let the arguments begin on who follows your exhaust.;)


put me down for this please andy:)

That's you added tony.;)

[ELFMAN]

That's you added Elfman. Let the arguments begin on who follows your exhaust.;)

Yes, these wee excursions to 7,000rpm....That's why I use so much bleedin petrol on these runs - it must be the most expensive thing on my motor:D :D :D Still, it's better for you than fags....:p AND it still makes me grin like a loon!!!!

[Duncan Stewart]

Can you add me and my daughter (Carol) please Andy
Thanks

Paul, you were asking about the where's and when's on this a while ago. Recce-ing the route later this week.

Looks to be starting in Gala, heading down to Bellingham for Lunch, along the side of Kielder, then up to Gala again, arriving about 3.30 or 4pm. Should have time for some Projection room tours. Then an early evening show of Indy IV, probably about 4.30 or 5pm. Ending about 7.00 - 7.30pm ish. All TBC, but that is the plan at the moment.

I have provisionally booked the place out for Lunch - circa 40 people. So I need folk to confirm if they are happy to take the lunch option. It is not a concrete commitment, and you can pull out at any time. But I need to get more accurate numbers closer to the date. So please let me know if you are deffo for lunch.

Andy

Just realised that we cant make this run. Sarah is away at some dancing thing and I am at a common riding event. I will most likely be heavily boozed by the time the film starts so wont be able to drive down. Even if I could get there I would no doubt be nipping to the toilet every 15 mins as a result of many beers and my girly bladder :D which im sure would ruin everyone elses viewing pleasure.

Meeting at ASDA Car Park in Galashiels at 10AM for a 10.30AM departure.

We will be arriving back in Galashiels roughly 4pm, which may give us time for a couple of projection room tours - time permitting.

Please remember the admission price for the film is £3.50. We really want to offer it for free, but especially with the numbers going, we just can't do that. I will put a system in place so that our staff know to charge you CHILD admission price to get the offered discount.

For those who have NOT confirmed one way or the other for the lunch could you please do so ASAP. I need to give final numbers Thursday morning so I need to know Wednesday night at the latest - confirming after then may mean you picnic with the picnickers.

Still awaiting lunch decisions from:
Paul & Christopher (johnsop01)
V11kAE & Hubby
Bumble - are you a One or a Two?

Any questions from anyone... fire away.

Andy...don't think we will be able to manage now...really need to spend time on the house.

If I'm due any money for you organizing food...I will of course reimburse you...

No problem Mark. No monies due. That house is sucking up all your free time mate, you need to get out more.:frown: But I'm sure it will be lovely when it's all done.:cool:

Well its a toss up between going on the runs...and feeling guilty that i should be working on the hoose...or getting it to a point where I can leave it...be happy(not guilty)....and go back to it in the winter. Need to get all the major stuff done...then tidy up as i go along. I promised myself i wouldn't stop the renovations until they were "finished" this time...since i have started in good faith before...then my steam kinda ran out.

Don't know why i even road taxed the car in January.:frown:and it STILL has its winter wheels on!!!!:ragin::argh: Car hasn't had a bucket wash since December....just a foam wash...and slung back in the garage.

Oh well...back to it for me:eyes up:fixing cracks in ye olde egg and dart cornice isn't fun....

Hope its a good run!

I want to sit beside mum and dad. Craig get narky if he's not fed at regular intervals and they've definitely got the magic touch! SOoo excited about this run.

Sorry Jude, we called shotgun on this long ago. You think Craig gets narky when he's hungry. You haven't seen Lenore when she's hungry yet.:laugh::laugh:

Like Connor MacLeod said in 'Highlander' (in a rather strange accent)
“There can be only...... ONE.”:thumbs up: (if only they'd stuck to that and not made all those bloody sequels:argh:).:off topic: NO IT ISN'T - it's about CINEMA!!!

[rosssp]

Andrew

[Jude]

Looking forward to the run tomorrow. Hope the weather holds. Think I've almost convinced Craig to see the film although it's a bit scarier than what he's used to. He's a sensitive sole really:laugh::laugh::laugh:

[AndyP & Lenore]

Nachos all ready for you. Nice new crunchier nachos too.:thumbs up:

Great Day out again with NMS. Thanks to the Pooles for finding a great place for lunch and for the cheap cinema tickets......:thumbs up:

the weather is nothing - we live in Scotland, so it always rains.. ;)

I just want to say sorry to those I passed on the A7 on the way up the road. I was fading fast as was Jude and I just wanted to get up the road... on that note - who stole Stoney and swapped him with an old lady ? ;):hand: I never thought you drove at that speed... :thud:

hope to see you on the Perthshire Run... :thumbs up:

[Bumble]

Rubbish weather but didn't spoil the day, thanks to everyone for making it a great day out, table 10/01 for being a bit silly (poor potato - it wasn't it's fault it was different) and thanks to the Pooles for the nice lunch stop, cut price tickets and the :popcorn:.

... here are a few of my pics ...

sorry Lynn, can't see your photos... :confused:

[Bumble]

[Craig]

awww ... ! what am i doing wrong!

no idea, If I take the pic properties and put them in another explorer window they open up fine... :confused:

[The Dogfather]

I think the site is blocking NMS displaying them. Not sure how though. You can view them directly though.

there they are ... strange!

No worries about zooming past Craig ... Stoney turned into a layby (followed by Elf) on the city bypass so hope all is okay and it was just a re-group?

[Neil and Lorna]

We also had a great day, hope you all enjoyed.:D


Here's a few of our pics from today.

Big thanks to the Pooles for another great run, the weather didn't spoil it. :thumbs up: Those roads would have been sooo much fun in the dry though.
Lunch was yummmy! Enjoyed the film, thanks to Andy & Neil for the wee tour of the projection rooms, very interesting. Roll on the next one.
What was up with Stoney on the way back, it's not often we overtake him.:eek:

[weefossy]

Another fantastic run, despite the weather. What a great laugh it was, thanks again to the "Popcorn Kids". Didn't take too many photos but here's a few

The banter in the rain was better than the banner in the wet

[Jude]

Would just like to add my thanks to Andrew and Lenore, Neil and Lorna for a fab day out and all their hard work. Film and nachos were excellent:smilewinkgrin:
Also have to thank Siobhan for making my day extra special. Haven't laughed so much in ages:thumbs up:
Finally, have to apologise for embarassing Colin walking through Gala in my lovely waterproof. Think the clue was when he asked if I could walk two paces in front of him:laugh::laugh:


Madness is only a state of mind:Whistle:

[Crombers]

Crombers mate, You're Fired :nag:

Firing accepted boss :moonie:

Saw proof of the evil rust yesterday on a four/five year old so ...........
I'm out, I quit, I be offski, ta-ta ;bigwave:

Polish is the new god :thumbs up:

[Big Gordy]

I just want to say sorry to those I passed on the A7 on the way up the road. I was fading fast as was Jude and I just wanted to get up the road... on that note - who stole Stoney and swapped him with an old lady ? ;):hand: I never thought you drove at that speed... :thud:

I need to apologise to Elfman as well as I think I kinda squeezed in front of him during that mad rush of overtaking....sorry dude:thumbs up: In my defence tho I'd just had a text saying my tea was at 8.30 and the way stoney was driving I would be lucky if I made it home for breakfast:ragin:
I'll add my thanks to the Poole's as well;bigwave: Great grub and good movie...TA:smilewinkgrin:

[ELFMAN]

BIG Thanks to the Pooles for organising another great day out - try to work a bit harder on the weather, guys - you know you can do it. Enjoyed the Projection Room tours, very interesting to see what goes on while everybody's enjoying a film. Lunch was up to the usual standard (if only I could've had a wee nap afterwards........) Thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing - thanks everybody!

On the way home from Gala, we were taking it easy - I had about a quarter of a tank of juice left, and Bumble's MINI was feeling a bit 'under the weather' (in more ways than one). I reckoned Stoney was in the same boat as me, fuel-wise, so with that in mind, I just contented myself with a leisurely run home.... BUT - as Bumble said, Stoney turned into a layby as we went onto the M8, and I pulled in after him. Turns out our lad has picked up the 'dreaded lurgy' - he was NOT a well man, so the two of us just drove home slowly in horrible conditions - spray, standing water etc etc. Bad enough when you're feeling OK, nightmare when you're ill. Anyway, we got back to Larkhall, and Rob was away to his bed, looking like death warmed up - hope you're feeling better mate!

Lurgy, Low Fuel and a wonky Bumblemobile (did it feel any better on the way home Lynn?). So that's the mystery of 'Indiana Jones and the Slow Stone' solved! See you all on the next one when hopefully all the cars and their drivers will be fighting fit! By the way Gordy, I saw you coming - you were fine - loads of room.

Really sorry to hear you were unwell on the way home Rob. TBH, you were looking a bit pastey white most of the day, but I just put that down to you being tired with having a manic week beforehand.

Hope you pick up soon.

A.:thumbs up:

[Duncan Stewart]

Had a great day out splashing through the puddles :D The rain just seemed to make it more fun for me. The hills were spectacular in the mist, the roads challenging & fun and the banter at stops even better than usual!
Very impressed with how well my new Cooper went in the conditions, even better than my last one :eek:
Thanks to A&L for organising and to everyone who attended to make it such a good day out.
Lovely lunch as well :p
