I finally picked up my mini yesterday morning.. yay!
After being told for years that I couldn't drive minis (damn ex boyfriend) I actually managed to drive it all the way through sydney (from Curl Curl to Wollongong) by myself. Big Excitement!
Anyway, enough about that. Just needed to share with people who understand!

Doing all teh running around this afternoon to the RTA and NRMA and to get insurance and stuff.. then it will be all excellent.. except for the monry I have to save to get stuff done to it.. but that's why OverTime was invented!

It's a 76 clubman...
I've been cruising a little by myself in between shifts at work, getting used to all the funny little things (big change from a hyuandai!)
organising a local cruise sounds good too :)
you live near jonesy, don't you? i now work just over the creek from his house - walk past and see mini/s there all the time! :)

Yes they do have a pool, and yes he has been in it! I have been told many of his water related stories, one that includes their living room and a hose and nudity:?
