Owwww, I'm sooo proud of you all!

Considering how nervous a lot of you were, you all did a stunning job of traumatising Bean (which is what this exercise was all about.....).

The pictures I have seen are beautiful.
Completely stunning.

I never imagined the calendar would be this Kwa-li-tee, but Bean's genius, the (reluctant) enthusiasm, and nakey bodies, of some attractive mini fans have produced a tremendous collection of images.

I am sooooo chuffin' chuffed with you all!

Nice to meet everyone and put bums faces to names!

you know in my case that's now completely true.

Thank you so much jean for being a true professional, you were just great. I don't know how you did it but well done!

Also a big thank you to juju for organizing so much, laying on the lovely snacks(even though I was too nervous to eat!), calming me down and generally just being fantastic!

I had a great day at the location and it was nice to be able to meet a few of you, thank you for all the help with buffing (my mini).

Goldie, i fell in love with your car!


WELL DONE NAKED PEOPLE!!!

Aww thanks, I haven't had so much attention for my car in a while!
I also enjoyed clambering all over it but she got her own back today and decided to stick the throttle cable and then completely snap the radiator bracket, i dont think i'll be using her as a climbing frame for a while...!!

Also I very much loved yur shiney shiney blue car, yu and Becs did a lovely job cleaning!

Thank you he was pretty darn shiney shiney in the end! I had some good help cleaning him and he scrubbed up pretty well, I was very proud of his shiney bottom when it came to my shoot! Not so proud of my own shiney bottom however hehe-poor jean.

Thank you to everyone for being so flipping ace, especially the secret location...still can't believe what Vern was parked next to! Jean for being so lovely despite little Becs and the girls making guest appearances and Juju for all the organisation and being an all round brilliant friend

You folks have some gorgeous minis!!! Vern was stoked with the kind words bless him! Really inspired me and the Vernster and future mini purchases

I got back on saturday afternoon, had such a good time meeting everyone! Jean was so professional and amazingly good at what she did! It was a proper laugh doing the shoot and the fact its for charity just made it so much more worthwhile!

It was good to see so many nice Minis there, and put a few more faces to the names! I can't wait to see the finished result!

And I think Juju should quit her job as a scientist and become an official false beard sculptress!

[Goldie1275]

hahaha, that beard was so ace!! sometimes i wish i had one, to stroke in situations that need a stroke of the beard...*possible jig to ensue by becs...* :Px

[mini_stella]

I still recokn that apoxy resin would have worked wonders, better that gel or wax!!

[WiredbyWilson]

I turn my back and Stella has taken to poking fun at me!!

I think it was more a case of people putting things behind me when i wasn't looking!! And for the record i only stumbled twice!
