I got a new mission statement for the garage:

Now to see how many Mini's I can fit in a double garage :P

I have the same sign hanging up above my mini!

I got a MITG calendar and a TMF calendar, both featuring a certain red and white mini!

Our new house has reached lock up stage recently, so that's a Christmas present too. The garage door is on and there is definitely enough room for our two daily drivers and a mini and a work bench. (Hopefully room for another mini but we'll have to see :D )

Merry Christmas to all!

We're building a new place with a 90m2 garage so saving for that! $100 towards a Kinchrome tool chest though!

Nothing mini related, but there are some sales on. I should take matters into my own hands!

Was adjusting the daughters bonnet catch with the NEW stubby spanners and discovered that the 7/16" ROE is 7/16 at the ring end and 3/8" at the other :shock:
Back to Supercheap this morning :(

I didn't get any mini pressies unfortunately, but I did get a nice big bottle of Butterscotch Schnapps!

Oh, and I bought myself a Mini Keyring, a badge and a DVD (The Story of the Mini - Documentary DVD).

Does that count? lol
