I had a parcel turn up from Belgium a while ago, but with no idea of quite what it contained....

 

Most exciting!

 

It was a collection of bottle tops (for my interior), stickers, T-shirt and beer from International Minidrinkers :highfive:

Yeah, I just got £300 worth of panels delivered to work, security came into the office and told me off because it's huge and is stuck right in the way.

I love receiving their parcels due to the cool tape on them, there not just a plain box

Good size box there too Ryan and Angela - must be goodies!!!  I almost want to go and order Something, anything - I like getting their parcels too, annoys the wife though!  Maybe I can get her something for her birthday on Friday :-)

I have to agree with this. I got well excited when my last big delivery turned up; was only plugs, leads and other service bits but I was dead chuffed :)

I don't know, will Minispares be able to deliver with enough time for you to wrap it up by Friday?

Boxes from min-its are better because they use about 3 rolls of Brown tape lol drags the suspense out a bit longer!

Well guys, you need to get in contact with Yves International Minidrinkers through facebook and try to join the club.

 

It involves an initiation ceremony rite (loads of beer) and much fooling around. The club is for IMM goers only..... although I blagged entry into this highly respected band of mini owners, as I knew a few members and managed to convince Yves I was a worthy member. Photos of my project helped, along with a request for 1000s of used beer bottle tops.....

 

I'm only classed as a novice though and have yet to gain the much coverted blue T-shirt... just a yellow top at the mo :( ....

 

...but with IMM in the UK this year, I'm hoping to make the grade and move up a level ;D

 

Bottoms up!!
