Looks great - scenery is stunning!

Fab pics Andy! :) Encluding the one of us trying to get down the hill :lol:

some of use are bi-lingual ;)

good piccies - I will sort mine out when I get a moment. Might be a couple of days

Great pics Andy/lenore shame you never got either of your minis out, where was your "100% BMW" sticker for your beamer.

Honestly though that first pic is amazing.

Me and Catriona got home about 3pm after a rummage around Braemar and a couple of stops along Deeside to take in the scenery. We had a lovely time and many thanks to Paul for organising this. A mega job done superbly well. Thank you that man :clap::clap::clap:

Catriona and I opted for the Alternative Tour this year - namely a Treasure Hunt through Wester Ross, with the treasure being missing minis. LOL after lurking in various places for hours almost choked on my ham sarnie when I heard them zooming up through Gairloch without stopping. Despite hitting the road as fast as I could get my shoes on we never seen the little blighters before Ullapool :sad:
Sleeping in the car was er!! an experience!! :laugh::laugh::laugh:How on earth Catriona slept through the alarm going off every hour or so beats me :confused: but she did. Was well knackered by the time we rolled into Inverness.

Well done to Stewart though for reaching Inverness before the young guns in their GPs and Works :laugh::laugh::laugh: just goes to show the quiet ones are worth the watching :laugh:

Catriona kept telling me to get a move on. Bless her socks she couldn't understand why I roared and laughed at her suggestion to get to the front of the minis. For as clever as Dougall is he's not yet mastered the art of flying.

We both had a lot of fun on those fabulous highland roads. Was really good to see those faces that are familiar and some that were not. Hope everyone got home ok.

Catriona wants to go on next year's run but she wants me to buy a mini like Emma's for it.

Dougall's had his bath and some pampering for all his hard work this weekend. Doesn't seem to be any the worse of the wear for his troubles. I did hear a couple of pings off his front bumper but no damage to be seen.

Thanks again Paul. That was a brilliant run :thumbs up:

Amazing weekend and huge thanks to Paul, yet again. Will post up properly later. Have had an hour's kip, something to eat and I'm off to pipeband practice.......with a brain that feels like a "pund o' mince". Mom's slumbing it in front of the tellie.....don't think she has a clue what's on it!!

“Highland Tour Challenge Cup�

Mini Utd 2 Weatherall FC 0

Not even twenty minutes of thick mist beat us... :thumbs up::thumbs up::thumbs up:


I got home just before 6 but that’s me taking the scenic route to Glasgow through the Trossocks …..The Dukes Pass had to be done but at the cost of Glasgow Rush hour:argh:.. Great few Days and that last 70 miles was stunning. How we managed to have Emma with her roof down over the three days and 90% on the Roads dry was amazing for the Weather forecast.:thumbs up: The sun just seemed to Follow us. You always hope it will be as good as last time and it did not disappoint.
Finally got to see Applecross, even if Alex’s brakes cooled quicker then we thought.(Dam them!) :ragin:

“Here that looks like Mini’s going up the Coast�
Followed by “oh crap�

Also got a stone chip on the windscreen:sad:....very small so will get it filled. It’s the tyres that are needing new rubber:blush:


Just don’t mention the Sheep……….Bhaaaaaaaaa. :smilewinkgrin:
