Hello all from North Carolina, USA! Just wanted to introduce myself.
I have a 2005 MC S, silver / black with about 6000 miles on it. Love it.

I started an international register for MINI Cooper owners in May of 2005. We now have 224 members. I am collecting photos from around the world and hope to publish a "yearbook". We have over 700 pictures submitted. The best photos will receive prizes as list on the web site. Come check us out.

We only have one member from Scotland...Aberdeen! (Thank you :D)
Hope to see more of you from Scotland. Come give us a look. Thanks.

Haggis is a Very Secret Not seen very often creature that roams Scotland..

Not many people have seen this Secret Creature.

It roams Our Scottish hills Eating Heather and Small creatures.

To See a haggis you have to be Awake really Early and Have to Dress in Fancy dress Screaming In the Hills Like a Moose.. Then and only then May you possibly See a haggis.. The Haggis remains a Scottish Secret. Similar to What a True Scots man wears under his kilt...

Any Plans On Visiting Scotland

Good Luck In your Quest to See the Famous Scottish Haggis.

Although now rarely seen as over hunting has taken it toll...a quirk in Mother Nature blesses this shy & secretive creature with one leg slightly longer than the other...

So the traditional way of catching a nice crop, involves corralling them up a hill...and whist yr then chasing it around the top slopes...stop and surprise the wee beasties by going the other way...much cunning;)...your fellow intrepid haggis hunters can then collect them in nets as they roll doon...! :D


Welcome :cool:

I’m sure someone else on the site can detail the torrid times of the 17th & 18th century haggis farmers and how trails at repopulation of mainland Europe have been hinderd by the abundence skiers and snow boarders...:cool:

Anyway's Welcome :cool:
