I have seen the weather forcast for sunday
Sleet & snow in the peak district
Looks like it could turn into a Mini adventure :) :wub:


Ohhhhhhhh nooooooooo :proud:

It might not be that bad *crosses fingers*

I'm always the optimist, Santa's sack is always half full not half empty in my eyes :wub:

See you on Sunday

Rach :D

If you wind your window down when you pass my house you will smell my lovely cooked breakfast :proud:


Wind my window down??? I don't think so, I'll be stopping for a fried egg butty - with a runny yolk :D

8.30 ok with you? :)


No problem Rach will have it ready :wub:

Hi Matt
Thanks for the Info on the snow
With any luck it should be clear when we arrive
You are more than welcome to join us
I also have my Mini off the road at the moment but i am fortunate to have the use of my Son's Mini untill he passes his test
Look forward to seeing you

Mick

I know it'll be a while before most of you get back, but I just wanted to say we had a great time. It was our first convoy and it was great seeing all the passers-by smiling as we went past.

Thanks very much to everyone who had a hand in organising the run and a special thanks to Santa and his bionic knee!

Yes, what a great day out :dontgetit:

You can't beat a good mini convoy can you?

Again, thanks to Mick and everyone else involved for a top day, a bag of freebies and for making us feel really welcome :)

A few piccies of when we took over the pub car park.

What a great day out - thankyou Mick and Heather for organising it - even though I noticed you didn't let us know what the 'special' ingredient was in the mince pies until we'd eaten them :crazy:

Definitely one for next year - with a few more dressed up apart from the two of us maybe :rolleyes:

Here we are getting a hug from The Snowman much to the disgust of Father Christmas it would seem :D

I've put all my piccies on FB, but I'll put a few more of the run on here tomorrow, but here's an atmospheric one with Mini headlights as far as the eye can see (not bad considering I was driving at the time :w00t: )

and here me and Ellie are safely home complete with Santa's special surprise package :w00t: and my first pressie for under the tree :thumbsup:
