I bought the wheels from a guy from Holland I just collected them from him there.

I got some 10x5 inch ATS classics.

Nice show but absolutely freezing.

Have to say, the turnout was terrible. I felt for the traders who braved the elements only for so many punters to stay at home.

It was horrible weather!

Here's the bunch of Essex Mini Club that made it.... We did have a moment where a Wolsey Hornet convoying with us, cut out coming off the slip road! But he appeared at Brookland's so all was well! Few mishaps with broken fuel gauges as well.

I went to oxford today with my lass to pick something she bought on ebay up, did dive in here for about an hour on the way back at lunchtime, turnout was nowhere near as good as it has been in the last few years, dont know wether it had something to do with the weather or not. Was slightly dissapointed as i left my phone at home so couldnt contact anyone there an didnt see any regular faces i know >_< saw your mini jon, looking smart, couldnt see you anywhere though.

It was the weather that put me off.

Not because of the driving but my 6 month pregnant Mrs didn't fancy freezing there and I also assumed the turnout was going to be quite poor compared to previous years... :shy:

Not my mini lol. Mines a heap of crap and kept cutting out last night so I dumped it at my GFs farm and a mate was nice enough to give me a lift in her Elf.

I am frozen and my feet still hurt with the cold. I don't care if I've told everyone a hundred times today that I'm cold (my husband says he's fed up with hearing it and it won't make me any warmer), but It was freeeeeezing and I'm still frozen. It was so cold, oh and there were some nice Minis, but it was really, really cold >_<

Here are a few of my pics that I took when I could bear to take my hands out of my pockets because I was sooooo cold!

The 500 Copper Sport and 2000 Register with Mr Bump on. God only know how Andy, the Register managed to man the stand most of the day cheerily chatting to owners and interested Mini owners. He did a great job :D
Posted Image

Mr Bump's snow on his roof which made it all the way from Oxford to Brooklands and back, frozen solidly on (not that it was cold or anything!).
Posted Image

The Mini Cooper Register's stand with Trevor on the end - another big well done (or you're utterly mad) to the chap manning that!
Posted Image

Great excitement when we found an advertising poster with Trevor on! :D
Posted Image

The mental winners of a couple of the Show 'n' Shine classes. I take my hats off to all those in today's Show 'n' Shine, but cleaning Minis in this weather - what are you thinking! Men in White Coats time me thinks! :lol:

Colin with Mr D. Not usually a fan of anything non standard, but I'll make an exception for Mr D :-)
Posted Image

Desmond with his RSP S :-) (best car of the show of course!!) :D
Posted Image

An old favourite, sporting a snow roof too :D

And a few of other photos :-)

Guess what, I'm still blinking frozen! >_<

Tanya, slyling taking pictures of the Essex Mini Club stand without saying hello?

I did look out for you, found Trevor, but not Mr. Bump. Walked past him, but didn't realise he was yours.
