Don't usually do this sort of thing as i have an aversion to driving in convoy since some idiot crashed into the back of me in one,.. and yes they where in a Mini too!!! But I could be persuaded to come along

[Southy]

I very much look forward to reading mini mag for the write up

Is that goin' to be if your cars on the page or not?

Well maybe
Ok i might not buy the mag might just go into work and read it on the counter and put it back haha

[fergie]

well nobody has bumped into each other yet.

maybe there mini was on heat and flirting with your mini.. or the owner?

[Linzi]

no there where two reasons they crashed into me,.. 1) he wasn't paying enough attention 2) he had little to no brakes (this was proved by his MOT a week or so later) To say I was fuming when I found this out was an under statement!! But all was fixed and sorted out with little fuss of which i was glad. Just makes me nervous to go anywhere in a convoy, I know you could argue this is what driving is but people get a little enthusiastic on runs lol.

you should be fine as long as your not in front of markaboot
(only joking mark)
you should come for the meet even if you dont feel like going on the run.

I had that privilege on the last run, but in fairness I didnt know his brakes had failed until later.
Linzi, go at the back if you want then no one can run into you.

[Linzi]

as long as everyone has working brakes there wont be any issues

Will try to make it, sure one day off working on project Puddles won't make too much difference,.. lets hope Biff starts behaving himself though!!

haha just seen this.

would like to add that i always keep a sensible distance from the car in front! which is why i managed to avoid a crash last time. too close for comfort tho.
