Hello from across the Pond

[travelingmcmahans]

Hi! I have been talking to Alan (Bonnie Scotland from Mini2) on Mini2, and he suggested I stop by here. My husband and I are coming to Edinburgh for Hogmanay :D and will be in Scotland for a few days. We have been once before, and loved it. We can't wait to come back.
We live in Kentucky, "The Bluegrass State" and have a British Racing Green Mini Cooper S. He turned one year old yesterday.
I work in Tourism, mainly doing things like writing articles, press releases, and designing brochures and newsletters, as well as some website work and other misc. My husband works on our business which is advertising. We have been married 6 years, love to travel and have no kids. Unless you count my baby Dudley, the Mini.
Alan has been working on getting a Run together for our trip over, and I'm so excited! Can't wait to come over to Scotland and meet some of you all!

Hi, well i guess i should be the first to welcome you to NMS, a lot of our members are on the 2nd day of the Glen Coe run (as detailed in the meetings forum) but i'm sure you'll be warmly welcomed.
If you trawl thru the site you'll see my attempts to get something organised for the monday or tuesday of your stay.

Fingers crossed and keep in touch

Welcome to NMS Dana, Hubby and Dudley :cool:
Looks like you may just miss out on a Scottish MINI event the day you arrive :( Never fear though, I'm sure Alans' attempts at arranging a little get-together for the Monday or Tuesday will be a success ;):)

Enjoy your trip to Scotland. I've got a funny feeling we might just meet up with you at some point :cool:
