running runs

Life can be so.. difficult sometimes. I love my mini, shes cute, funloving, and brings a smile to my face everytime I drive her and the only thing better than driving her (which I try to do daily to keep me sane) is meeting up with other mini nuts who get just as excited as me about their, and others cars. The problem is getting them together! Between everyones work and personal lives just getting 4 or 5 of us together once a month seems to be a task worthy of Olympic medal status! Now theres currently 239 registered users on the KZN Mini Owners Club forum, given there are some who live quite some distance away so lets call it 180 in South Africa, devided between all the provances, call it 40 or so in the imediate area. Amazingly theres maybe 10 of us actively on the Forum and of these only 2 or 3 of us regularly turn out to the runs! Perhaps I shouldnt complain too much, at least we do get to meet up from time to time. I just cant help wondering where all the mini drivers are! Daily I'll see 3 or 4 minis of all shapes and sizes driving around Durban, and yet... Maybe we just need to get out there a bit more, spread the word kind of thing, the club members are all nice guys (and girls) perhaps all we need is a little advertising. Something I think I'll put my head around over the next few days, who knows maybe with a bit of publicity we can get every mini owner in Durban to join us!! certainly its a lovely sight having a string of minis stretching out along the road, perhaps we'll get some photos of that one day, till then, heres the website, no time like the present hey :D http://www.atfreeforum.com/kznmini/viewforum.php?f=6&mforum=kznmini
