    An amazingly long day for us, just in and had our tea
    Great roads and scenery, weather was pretty poor, a very well organised run over teriffic roads etc.
    Only dodgy moment was Andy winning a prize at the lunch stop
    Will post the piccies tomorrow

    Not long back, just fed and watered. Like Alan says.. that was a loooong day!
    Well Done the Poole collective! I'll be up for next years! Get some better weather sorted eh? Although saying that, those Federals are no bad in the wet! THey helped me keep up with the big boys! lol
    Adn thanks again (and to JCs) for the goodie bag! I'm away to play with my Mini! (Ha! and that's NOT a euphemism!!! )

    Good to meet the NM guys too, and finally put some names to faces... Although seeing Paul once.. never forgotten ! lol
    Hopefully get myself sorted for an adventure down to NM land in Oct!

    Mad weather, great roads, manky Mini! Job well done!

    Thanks to all that attended.

    Thanks also to the Pooles for organising a great route - you should stop the rain dances tho' for MINI runs, I know they help popcorn sales, but come on guys, sunshine is better for runs.

    I had an "interesting" day with alloy wheels, lets just say my luck still hasn't changed with wheels and tyres... If anyone finds an Axis centre cap that fits my car in the Borders somewhere, I'll give you £25 for it.

    As some have already said, this was the last "run" of the year, however there may be some other events over the winter (defo go-karting in Feb )

    Andy cheers for the run, and thanks to JCs for the MINI, Freya thinks she should be rounding it up.

    Good to see you all again, even Alan

    Our next run is a get together in Skipton but I'd like to have a Hadrian's Wall run soon, great if some of you could join us for that.

    That would be good. The first mini run I ever went on was a Hadrians wall one. I think that was back in 2003.
