Not me

Bloody lost the copy of Mini World with the last chance to sign up in it. Poo.

Probably going to go to Himley Hall though. Anyone been before? Worth going?

I think himley is normally a nice show, can't be bothered with brighton again, they never have anything new, I might drive down but I'm not paying £20 for another t-shirt to clean the car in!

I hadnt actually considered that one could just drive to Brighton on the same day as the London to Brighton run! DOH!

Theres a load of trade stands etc down on Madiera drive isnt there? Perhaps the place to pick up a couple of brightwork bargains.

Definately up for Himley in that case. Any other PH'ers going?

I think Himley Hall is near Dudley in the West Midlands. (Just outside Birmingham I think)

Himley Hall is not a bad day out, I went last year with a buddy from Lincoln. Saw an absolutely mint ERA Turbo there, really nice and well looked after. He has a british open classic, nice little car. My sister is doing L2B again, I've never done it despite my folks living mid-way between the two. Not my thing I'm afraid.

I'm still over the other side of the water at the moment. Went on a little road trip last weekend and of all things to see there was an innocenti mini in backwoods New York state. There are a few BMW Mins about, but not many proper minis........

In 2 years in the US I saw two.

One went past me going the other direction on I-5 and the second was parked outside my favourite BBQ joint in Norcross, GA. Nothing unusual there (really) except for the fact that either side of it were parked a F350 Dually and an Excursion. It looked truly tiny!
