After driving in the Rylstone Classic which was a great Day and Night. We then headed North towards Ipswich.
We made it just past Scone, when things felt a bit funny in the steering wheel, after a quick stop we find that we have one only wheel stud holding us up

We would like to say a Big thank you to "Goodie" for letting us use his tools and for allowing us to look though his parts to find sum wheel stud ( Not quiet the right length, but close enough to get our standard wheel on)

We then travelled to Tenterfield, and Called in to see Ron Williams, who put his hand onto 3 wheel stud the right length. Thank you Ron. (Still no Wheel nuts for the Jellybean)

Next stop, Mini Automotive in Ipswich were Ken finds the two nuts that we needed. Thank you Ken.

The wheel can now go back on. Having a 4 day stop to see that Granddaughters, we contacted lugnutking on eBay who sent up 8 Jellybean wheel nut that arrived over night. So Thank you Lugnutking. We then give Ken back his Nuts.

It is great to be part of the Mini community which is so willing to help each other out

Again thank you to all the People that helped us out. The world is looking a bit shitty at the moment, but there are still some very nice people out there.

Peter & Karen

It was a pleasure ausmini. I'll miss all you misfits and reprobates

Yes, agree Pete, in all walks of life whatever and wherever it is, some people are very nice and willing to help people in need, friends for life. Then there is the other type who are not worth talking about, but we will remember them.

Hope you have a great turn up this weekend by the way. 850's rule.

Agree.. the mini community has helped myself and brothers out in the past when we have become stuck far away from home.

Its great
