Glad you all approved of the suit. It wasn't too uncomfortable, was pretty hot in it though!

Awsome day out, the drive down the A23 was nice. Gave the old gal a good spanking!

What a great day! I missed the awesome suit, but my dad saw it.
My dad, uncle and I stayed up all Friday night finishing the mini off and then it went for its MOT on the Saturday morning having stayed up all night! I was knackered but still had a fantastic day Sunday :D

What a weekend, a liked the camoflague suit best out of the two.
Thanks for all the peeps from anyone passing us know the way to Bournemouth.
One of our Cornish mini so decided to he wanted to be known the red arrows and oil smoke plumes everywhere.
A police escort later, and we're sorted.
Me and Dad left the others at Bournemouth and carried on home.
Got back just after midnight.
Roll on 2016. 2015 was our first, but not our last.

Didnt see many breakdowns this year, but I did leave Brighton about half 3.  Hope everyone and their cars got home safe and sound (and for those travelling today - stay safe)!  Some comments on FB that Police had pulled some Mini's over on M25? Might just be a rumour?
