[Willie M]

Washed the car earlier, whilst ducking in and out of the garage during the downpours :p Never really got him properly dried off though.

Hoping for a scorcher tomorrow, then you can all admire Chunk's streaky marks :I

Absolutely fantastic day, the weather held when it was needed, the Red Arrows were fantastic, then I would say that wouldn't I;)
Great to see all you again, and getting to know you all that bit more:D
Huge well done to Richard and Claire for turning up:p
And what was that language from you Claire whilst Russ Swift was trying to relieve you of your breakfast,Heeeee Heeeeee.:evil:
Great to see you both and great that you enjoyed your first run:D:D:D

Take a great big pat on back.:D

[3GGG]

Shoppie, many thanks for such a great day out - got to see both Russ Swift and the Red Arrows on the same day, amazing! - We really enjoyed the lunch as well (smokies of course). What a nice place Arbroath is, the tourist board should give you a medal.

[duncan]

Well done Howard, great day out, and i'm glad all your hard work was "rewarded" with the run with Russ Swift.

As for the weather, well, what else would you expect from a Scottish Summers day, but hey, everyone managed to get on and enjoy the day.

Well done to everyone else, a great turn out of MINI's, quite a sight

[Duncan Stewart]

What a great show today. Fantastic work Shoppie.
Sorry I didn't get to chat to some more of you as the rain kept us in the car longer than we would have liked.
I got some good photos of Russ swift and later some of the NMS Minis with the red arrows above. No time to post them tonight as I'm away on my holidays again until next Sunday. I'll maybe post some then if no one else has.
Cheers everyone :D :cool:

Great photos Angus:cool: - So it was you behind us parking at strange angles to get the photos - well done!

[ny152]

What a good day yesterday turned out be, despite the best efforts of our summer weather. And well done to Shoppie and everyone in Arbroath who organised the event. Russ Swift was good, the Red Arrows even better!

Uploaded some pictures at www.fotki.com/nysavant/arbroath will put on some more and sort out the duffers later tonight :).

[M4XNS]

First time out and had a great day even though we didn't arrive until the afternoon and missed the convoy !!

Big hello to edd who we squeezed in next to, found our way home via the Bervie chipper mmmmmmm !! Hope to see you on our 2nd outing at Cullen, providing we can get out of bed in time.
Also hi to the blue coop we were behind at montrose, and the indi blue CS with union jack mirror caps that passed us in layby before Inverbervie. Hopefully get to know more of you next time.

And is just me or does anyone else wish Russ Swift was your driving instructor ??

Maxine, the blue coop would probably have been Hamish driven by Sheilz. And the EB CS with union jack mirrors was me :cool:. We were a couple of cars behind you and Jordan on the way back, but then we got stuck behind a sunday driver. Was enjoying listening to the sound of Jordans exhaust :D, going to have to get a better exhaust for my S now. If I had seen the two of you in the layby sooner we would have pulled in and had a chat.

[Starky]

Well done Shoppie for a great day out, really enjoyed it, thanks also for the food voucher which was put to good use in The Old Brew House :D, thanks also to Allen for keeping the convoy information up to date and for keeping me right with directions, right and left etc :I. Looking forward to seeing you all again on future runs, cheers for now guys.

[Astrohaggis]

Fantastic day! Who knew you could use the MINI as a hairdryer?! (heat and fan up full through one open vent and I was dry in no time!) :D

http://img77.photobucket.com/albums/v235/kroothaggis/MINI/df8f43cb.jpg

Russ Swift was amazing! :cool:
The hotdogs were good!
And the Red Arrows were great (in some sun too!)!

[zimbo]

Just want to echo what everyone else has already said, and say a big thanx to shoppie for an excellent day, apart from the rain.... ;):D

[Scottie]

Well we got there even if we had to take a detour round Arbroath. The reverse up onto the park was great clutch a bit smelly. The ride with Russ Swift will be in my memories for ever all in all a great first run. Hope to make more in the future. "Try a mini prayer for less rain next time".

[ELFMAN]

Well done Shoppie and the Arbroath folks for a great day out - even the tyical scottish July weather couldn't waste it. Red Arrows and Russ Swift FAB, Tornado bleedin' scary! Wasn't it good to have the Polis stopping the traffic on the way in - dead handy that.

Hope everybody got home safe & sound - we sneaked out the seafront tarmac road to avoid yon nasty mud......

[Smurf]

Cracking picture Astrohaggis!! Smurf's wee flag came out really well !! And the planes aren't bad either....... :)

[Sheilz]

I'd like to say thank you too. Me and the kids had a brilliant time. The atmosphere was fantastic despite the weather:D:D. We cant wait to do something like this again:D:D:D. I'm really disappointed I cant make the Cullen run:(.
It was Hamish in Montrose. Unfortunately I had to take the other way home otherwise we would have been tempted by a fish supper from Bervie as well. The boys were very impressed with the grey S behind us, the contents too!!:approve::p
I think i could benefit from some parking lessons from the man himself:I:I.

[Richard]

Howard, I would like to add my thanks for such a well organised event. It was good to see so many happy like minded people enjoying a great day out.:D:D:D

PS. The event even got a mention in the Sunday Post. They said that a total of 63 new minis turned up! Did anyone actually get round to count the actual amount? To me, it looked like nearer 70 cars. Anyway it was a new Scottish record for the new mini. :D

PPS. Claire is now showing off her new neck brace after her drive with Russ Swift;);)

Once again well done for the event.

[shoppie]

Hi folks

Thanks for kind comments:). I must admit I was nearly speechless when I arrived at Focus and saw all those MINIS8)8)8). Ewan the Cabriolet driver couldn't believe his eyes.
I'm sorry I didn't get more time to talk to you all during the day but things were rather hectic on the radio at times as the weather played a major part in the appearance of the airborne attractions

A HUGE thanks from myself and the Arbroath Business Assocation for attending and helping to make the event the spectacular it was (weather and all!):cool::cool:. Everyone here is talking about MINIS, Tornado and Red Arrows.
An extra thanks to Calum for providing the Run Plaques and the banner and also to Allen for his part in the convoy thread.

If anyone has a pic of me on 2 wheels with Russ - Could I have a copy??

Thanks again - you all made my day:p:p

[Jeff]

I echo all the comments above really enjoyed myself. Special shout out to all those I spoke to Willie M, KJ, Low n Loud, Gaj, Eddie, Calum, Martin and apologies for the names I have forgotten. I particularly enjoyed getting lost in Arbroath even though I knew how to get to Mcds. Special mention also to Gaj who upset one of Tayside Police's finest by asking if we could escape early!

Great organisation shoppie

Hope to see everyone again soon

[chris]

superb event shoppie we all had a braw day the kids never even moaned once, which was good for mum and dad pity about the rain at times.cant wait till next trip .
once again thanks
chris ,karen, amanda,scott

[weefozzy Jr]

well what can i say, shoppie great day. i think a history section is needed on the web site as this was one to remember. i mean come on how many of you can say you have ever seen anything like that. i mean 70 odd mini's and all the owners looked like drowned cats. kirsty no offence but you won that one. i enjoyed it more as it was my first time as a driver. thanks everyone.

ewan whats thge name of the song u played in my car.

oh did anyone else get a gift from the puppet show man.

[Astrohaggis]

Honestly Smurf, it's always the same - I try and get a nice shot of the flag on someone's MINI and a bunch of neds try and get in the picture! :p

Just cos they're in bright red jets they think they're special! Bet you anything they've got burberry helmets!!! :D

Well it was my first day out too and it was great. Getting lost is all part of the fun! I got some pictures from most of the run stages but they're far too big to email to anyone! I'll try to put them online myself (:dead::question::eek:) at some point if I can work out how. Great run, well done everyone!

glad you enjoyed! ...much better than the dull A92!!

[Burple]

Well... all I can do is repeat everyone else's comments!!

Fantastic day out, we really enjoyed it! even the rain didn't dampen any enthusiasm!
Great to see Russ Swift in action again, especially having the bottle to go up on two wheels when it was that wet. apparently he's never tried that before! :eek::D

Even better to see all the usual suspects again, as well as lots of new faces!

Can't wait to see y'all at Cullen!! only 3 weeks to go and counting!!

Finally, massive thanks to Howard for all the hard work and organisation!! I know how much work something like this takes!
Fantastic job!! Hope you'll be giving it another go next year!

:D:D:D:D:D

[Big Gordy]

I can only echo what everyone else has said..........well done shoppie it was a grand day out :p:D:approve:

[Willie M]

Already said by one and all but I'd like to add my thanks to Howards and his team of organisers. An absolutely fantastic day out, big well done to you all.

Apart from meeting Ln'L 1 again (;)), and Big Col (for the 1st time), the Tornado flypast was the absolute highlight for me. Just pure awesome :approve::cool:

Great to meet up with all the NMS regulars again and to meet so many new faces too. Look forward to our next get together :cool: When is it again???? ;);):D

[The Bull]

That song you were after, you'll get it at : http://www.fm104.ie

What can I say? It's all been said. My first time out but unfortunately I didn't take part in the "adventures" as I am from Arbroath. Next time. It was quite something seeing Mini after Mini turn up at Focus...superb. Nice to meet other Mini owners from all over too. Mine was definitely the shiniest though!!

[Maxxed Ross]

Seeing as everyone liked the jets so much...(especially the Tornado F3)...how does getting involved with the Leuchars Air Show Sound? Just a suggestion.

[weefossy]

Howard, what a great day. It really was worth all the organisers' hard work. Thank them from us. Hope you enjoyed your treat with Russ swift, it was well deserved.:D

First time in Arbroath and we loved it. Had my smokies for lunch today (working from home)and they were special.:approve:

Angus, great photo(think it was yours)of Neil's Cooper,Saltire and Red Arrows, a copy of which is on the Den wall:cool:thanks for that.

Neil enjoyed his birthday party, thanks to everyone who joined in. Can we start a new thread to teach him how to sit in a mini. He can't get out of the "Corsa Ned Position":disapprove:

[Big Col]

I thought about that but have no idea how to go about it. Would be cool to have as many MINIs as Saturday cruising down the runway weaving from side to side. :):D:cool:

[Willie M]

A trip to Leuchars would be fun.

[Scottie]

quote:[

That was the easy bit the mud was soft mind you the car had a mud beard when we got home:p

Leuchers would be good (need to look out the ear plugs);)

[The Bull]

I used to be an engineer on one of the Tornado squadrons at Leuchars but unfortunately I'm really busy with work to take on the task of organising a jaunt to the Kingdom of Fife. If anyone has more time than me I maybe suggest contacting the organisers on info@airshow.co.uk . Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Could maybe help more on the day though, getting some members closer to the jets - Still have a few contacts on the squadron.

hmm.. Chris? Any suggestions? ;):D

Leuchars sounds a good idea and I will be able to supply the guys with ear plugs if need be !! haha...lets hope its when I'm not offshore !! .

[shoppie]

That didn't take long!

Although space at Leuchars Airshow is commercial, the organisers think its a great idea and they may be able to set aside an area for us F.O.C. There would be a strict rule regarding our participation though...
We must be on site by 07:30am in the morning and must remain in place until the show ends (around 6:00pm) There will be no possibility of anyone leaving early!!
I have the contact name and telephone no. to get back to if you wish to proceed.

[X30YES]

07;30 ...does that make into an overnighter now .....!!!!!!!!yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee who started this great idea . hahaha

[Maxxed Ross]

yeah cheeky. We were going to ask you if you wanted to run home together, only to find that you had sneaked off at some point. :evil:

It was Hamish in Montrose. Unfortunately I had to take the other way home otherwise we would have been tempted by a fish supper from Bervie as well. The boys were very impressed with the grey S behind us, the contents too!!:approve::p
