Aches, -
Last summer I had a tight deadline with my work and was drinking too much cheap energy drinks. played havoc with my digestion. One night I was sitting on the toilet, And fainted, smashing my head on tiled floor and giving myself a "whiplash" type neck injury. Numerous visits to the physiotherapist later and pain is still there. - Medication - pain killers, an huge elastic band, and a 700 quid office chair!

Recently been prescribed a pair of binoculars, as my eyesight is so bad. Although when i wear them everything looks out of proportion and the wrong shape and i cant judge distance in them. I was told i would get used to them, but in the mean time was told not to wear them in an off license or porcelain shop.

Maybe there should be a third category..'List of Deluded/Mentally Challenged Mini Drivers'

You mean I should have my own list??

[MaxAndPaddy]

Nope...they'd be two of us

Very selective club

[AVV IT]

Excellent!!!

...But I'm quite happy to have my own exclusive list though, I would keep it safely alongside my impeccable dress sense, endless riches and hareem of nymphomaniac young ladies!!

[MaxAndPaddy]

Bullocks to ya then....I'l have my own, and keep it safely alongside my terrible dress sense, endless debts and menagerie of children, mini's and wine cork collection

Another oldie

Name is Tony (most of the time)

Same age as 621 AOK

Eye’s are Knackered, memory’s not good, loads of aches and pains, and a dodgy ticker.

Still got my own teeth, and loads of blonde hair, though the missus will tell you it’s grey

I’ve owned quite a few motors including several Minis, Mk1 & Mk2 Escort’s, Mk1, Mk 2 & Mk3 Cortina’s, Mk1 Transit vans, twin & single wheel base, Anglia 105E, Peugeot 205’s, Sierra, Bedford CF van twin wheel base, Mk1 Golf, plus loads of other cars, but I would need a good memory to remember all of them.

Currently giving my 1971 Mini a major makeover. Haven’t driven a Mini for more than 20 years now, so can’t wait to get back in one and the feel young again
