Hey all, been a long time since I've been on here!
How's things - I've been up to lots, but more later.
I would first like to point out that I was the first member of Manchester Minis on here! Not the Jonny-come-nurburgring-run-latelys that are Dave B and Spam! (To everyone who went, yes they still wear their Nurburgring tshirts to the club on a wednesday night - sorry , it had to be said. PLease don't throw me out of the club!)
I had a look and the last time I came on here was 2 days before I passed my test!
A lot has happened since, like 5000 miles of Mini runs, cruising, saokaing up summer sun and the daily grind to college. Oh and I ended up rebuilding my car after my mate drove into the back of it!
This is my car, its a 1994 Mini Sprite 1275 spi. These were taken in July by Mini Rob of Manchester Minis fame:
Most notably now (appearance wise) its got opening back windows and has lost its daft stickers off the side.
This is what happens when a Mini gets hit behind by a Renault Clio too:
Its ok now, and got a mint back end too ater a new back panel, rear valance, and bootflorr to name just a bit.
This is me and my car on the most notable event I went to this year too, Mile Of Minis 2005 in Scarborough, with a few of the others from Macnhester Minis:
Manchester Minis!
My car with a Dodge Ram on Mile Of Minis too.
Well its good to be back all, after being instructed too by a few mates who have recently discovered tmf.
Not really a newbie

Wow! Your a roadie?
That is my all time dream job!! I was training to be a sound Tech in Truro college until i remembered i'm useless at physics.... I'm not going to let me stop me though! If your anygood with sound tech and in that area you must know Ryan Wilson... Best in Cornwall so ive heard... he lives a few doors done and i do the odd job with him!
Being a roadie is nearly as good as being a mini owner! Now that's saying something...
Good to see a roadie around here!!
Love Robyn xxx

Thanks all.
I'm a not proper roadie really, just gig for a few bands in the locality. Just known as "The Roadie" after they exploded onto the local scene, pulling me with them setting stuff up!
Now "freelance" (sounds posh you see!) and roadie for a few different bands. Its a hobby, proper grassroots stuff.]
It is odd mind, as now I'm known more to people with cars off the cruise scene as The Roadie to people from a musical background.
Oh and I'm training to be an aeronautical engineer, so no its not my job. Would be a cool one mind.
