Yeah it was about that.

Just had a thought. Maybe a nice introduction to working on them would be to come to mine tomorrow and clean the mud and grass off the underneath and the inside of the car :lol:

Nice meeting you both. Glad to hear you're getting a Minor - did you get to go in one of the JLH'ers ??
A standard Minor is awesome with no mods, but those ones were great fun :D

Hi Kris,
It was great to meet you and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Good luck in finding your perfect minor (I've heard how picky you are :wink: ). I'm sure we'll meet again at future rallies.
