Post by craigmini »

Firstly, thanks for Billy, Neil and all the lads for organizing another great event - definately doing it again next year :D.

I have put some pictures up on my web site www.CraigsMinis.com and will get some video up there soon (including last years MTM, sorry for not publishing the video for last year yet :oops:).

Hopefully will see you all at Mondelo in three weeks.

Craig

Again a big thanks to Neil and Billy for another great MTM,great to see and meet so many newbies who enjoyed the event,a brilliant array of minis,from Liam Cotters 850,Mick Glennons 14thirsty :D ,Brendan Kerrigans retro MKIV,David Winns newly restored 1275GT,the famous Miniworld Sputnik and all the other star minis that made up the cast of MTM09.The weather in Cork was crap but the further MTM got from Cork the better the weather got and driving minis in the sun is the best.It is great to see that the MTM is going from strenght to strenght and long may it continue.I for one will be back next year but I might leave the auto behind :D

great pics Lads 8)

Absolutely fantastic number of minis, of all shapes and sizes!!

Good to see the mini scene is alive and well and going from strength to strength,
which is brilliant considering all the doom and gloom of late.

Sputnik looks great!!

I took my son along this year as navigator and photographer. I originally only put 35 pictures up on my web site, but have now added them all (about 253 pics), you can find them on www.craigsminis.com - MTM2009/More.

Enjoy,
Craig

Sorry Tony, was not expecting to be flashed by a bus - thought there was a Garda trap ahead. Will look out for you in future.

Great pics, everyone. I particularly like the one that JustCoupe posted of the Minis going up the hill - should send that one to MiniWorld - Minis, sunshine, stone walls, cows, grass - perfect Oirish photo op!!!

Great photos, some lovely Minis there, especially the green Mini Garage van. The white Taxi Mini is class, I reckon a real Mini Taxi would do serious business.

The green van was picked out by MiniWorld as their favourite of the event. Well done Mick, I mean Paul Glennon.

First chance i have got to log on.
It was a great weekend and I would like to say thanks and fair play to the lads for all the effort in putting this event together.
It was my first MTM and hopefully be back next year for more.(If Im left) :?:
I must remember to Bring wellys next year >( so much for all the hours I spent fixing water leaks) the rain just kept coming in and yes both Shoes were wet. :( :(

Hope all made it home in one piece and look forward to meeting up again.

All the Best.
