Hey guys/girls,

we moved to Qld bout 6months ago, my mini is still in Melbourne and I am lonely :-p

just wondering what mini owning friends are around my area?

(sound desperate? Probably, but I miss my mini & haven't had a chance to get out much since moving here)

anyway I am in the moreton bay shire area, would like to meet up, know about cruises/meets etc

cheers

Rohan

Hi Rohan

I am not in your area, (I'm near Ipswich) but you can find what is on in the MOCQ at www.miniownersclub.com.au . There is a run on in the Sunshine Coast area on Sunday which I will be at, you would be more than welcome to join in.
If you want to chat I can send my number to you.

Cheers
Steve

EDIT: Sorry I should have started with Welcome to Qld

Make sure to teach MINIRO about Origin.
He has to understand or he WILL ALWAYS be lonely in Qld without a thorough grounding in the meaning of Origin. :lol:

Take heart, it's easier to teach a southerner about the Maroons spirit. :lol:

sounds a little sarcastic! Lol, we didn't realise the stigma attatched to some of the Reas up here before we moved up!!! :-p

re: origin, I do need to learn about it, never been interested in gAyFL so I don't need to be converted, I did/do go for the Maroons, have always gunned for qld teams in anything, having said that I am very much a v8 supercar freak, but I REALLY enjoyed watching I origin 2 on Wednesday!!

I grew up in Calamvale, and used to love punting around the lower moreton bay islands fishing for undersized whiting and flathead and stealing crabs from crab pots

It's a pretty nice part of the world in my mind...everyone is a million miles away when you're lost around the mudflats islands.

Welcome to QLD MINIRO.

I am sure you will enjoy the mini scene up here. The MOCQ is fantastic and there is always something to do on the weekends.

I am also in the Ipswich area, my mini should be on the road in around 3-4 weeks.

Have fun, Jason
