well my wee mini super was due a mot this week so it was a wee trip down to the mini works in edinburgh, and even though the brakes made me s**t myself is was a very enjoyable ride and it just makes me long for the dry summer nights that i hope will soon arrive (fingers crossed)

So anyone else feel the same way?

I'm waiting for the salt 'n such to get off the roads so I can get the Moke out of storage.....
Can you tell I'm a fan of "global warming".

have my black mk3 S that ive been building / refreshing all winter




Ive dusted the crap off the rallycar , put the intercoms back in and road tyres back on it



and i still need to fit a new fuel pump to this little rascal and tidy her up a bit as shes now looking a
little bit battered


zfz

but im hoping to get out and about , do a couple of events in the rally car now ive got all the
fia historic papers and logbooks up to date

roll on summer

Had it out a fortnight ago when it had been dry for about a week - took a wee spin to gently wake it up from hibernation.
But now it's raining again and the roads are thick with salt

Well I must say here in Mexico is always sunny so I guess I'm lucky I can drive my mini any day of the year, hope you guys can take yours out of the garage soon.

and its snowing in bolton 

Here in Denmark its really cold, and strong winds, so it feels like minus 20 degrees celcius .
the weather forecast predicted snow again to morrow, so no hurry to get the car out.

I think have had about 3 days rain since Christmas here in Christchurch, NZ.

Shame my car is a bare shell

Same here. Equal hottest and second driest summer on record. I've had some great drives in the Moke, but we desperately need the rain.

We've plenty spare here in the UK, I'll get some parceled up and sent out to you

Lovely weather in Athens today. The sun is out, the thermometer will creep up to 20 Celcius, I have 4 classics wainting for a nice drive along the coast, and I am stuck home.

This is what I look forward to.
