    Thanks very much to the Pooles for a Great Run.

    My apologies for rushing away at the end, but with Jude not being too great I wanted to get home to see her. And she hadn't moved all day and she's doing fine.

    No apologies required whatsoever Mark, as you say your just a bit rusty. Get out and drive it a bit more and less of the Smart Car.. Great to see you and Kim again after what feels like AAAges.


    Great to meet some new faces Alan R and Hidden and L13 ARG Hope you guys all enjoyed the run.

    See you all next time.

    Good to see some old faces...and some new ones.

    Apologies go out to Craig/Crombers/Neil and Lorna for holding you guys back...just wasn't happy with my driving/car today. I felt I was becoming a liability to the run TBH....so hence the reason for only doing half the run. Also don't drive the car all that often...so I'm out of practise me thinks

    Only stuck my 18"s back on during the week...and I think I got the tyre pressures wrong AGAIN! (EVERY BLOODY TIME I PUT THEM ON!!!!) Will play about with pressures and get it right for a few runs next year.

    All the best!

    It really wasn't a problem, hope you enjoyed the first half and you are always welcome on our runs.

    Cheers

    Thanks to everyone for coming today (especially folks who travelled a fair distance), without all you guys it wouldn't be as much fun.

    Good to see everyone today old and new.

    Hope everyone enjoyed the run and hope to see you all soon.

    Thanks to the Pooles for another great Borders run.
    The pace from where I was sat was spot on.

    I had a great time towards the end with Greg in front of me. He was holding back, creating a gap then we were going for it.

    Nice to see some new folks coming along. 2 new folks with 2 minis previously owned by other NMS members.

    Great day out and about with the Mini lot as usual and thanks to the Pooles for a well planned run. Pity the weather could not have held out for the afternoon run but still great to see around the place. A Beautiful part of the country that was new to me. Your cars as normal all looked great.

    As always sorry for slowing anybody up or over braking before bends…

    A few pic's, if anyone wants there plates removed give us a shout.











    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!
