Im delighted with her Ferg. She's a flyer, but I have to take it handy until I go back to Ger in 2 weeks so I am yet to put the boot down!!

Hope everyone enjoyed my Mini Run to the FAB 'Strawberry Field' Pancake house today :happy8:
We had 20 Mini/MINI's and I think around 32 people :glasses7:
Great selection of very shiny car's of all ages. Breda's gorgeous '08 MINI Sidewalk, Owen's WOW!!! Project R53 JCW, Alvin's BRG Mini Cabrio, etc.
There were 3 classic Mini Clubman's at the run and i was driving the '08 Clubman too :wav:
Lovely pancakes as always by the crew at 'Strawberry Field'.
I presented them with one of the very cool Miniclub Plaques that Chris Blackham very kindly donated-Thanks Chris :salute:
Ger also gave them a MTI 2008 Rally Plague that Peter the owner will place both up on the wall for all to see.
Thanks again for showing up so early on a Sunday morning everyone.
Until next year! :thumbright:

Just popped on to say Thanks a million to Ferg for putting together another fantastic run...
The roads were fab....had not been on that section where we turned off at Ballinlickey before!! Great route!
And as always.....pancakes were delicious!!! Were worth the wait!

Was great to see some new additions to the group today.....I'm sure everyone enjoyed their day!
Well done Ferg!!! :bigsmurf:

Great run Ferg, I really enjoyed Borlin, and the meetup at the start was something like Groundhog day when you rolled in driving your Clubman, followed by not one, not two, but three classic Clubmans. There was a great model mix yesterday, old cars, new cars, but everyone just had fun.

The pancakes were delicious as usual, and the few of us who stayed late and drove down the Black Valley/Gap of Dunloe stopped for ice-cream on the way home. I also bumped into Chris Blackham on his way home on the Ballincollig Bypass with his car full of kids!

Great to see all the new people, and we hope you make it soon again!
