Fraser Love from the Scottish Mini Clan has been in contact and has a run planned for us at the other side.We will meet up in Cairnryan and head to Portpatrick for lunch and a chance to meet all the other Mini owners and after lunch we will do a run that will take us back to Cairnryan.The run is not mandatory so if anyone wants to do their own thing thats OK too. :D
