Yes I am back in Finland already. I came here on 5th of December. I did actually see you at Mallow on 29th of November, but you were driving some happy couple off from the church.
Mini was waiting for me in the garage, but the battery had already gone dead before it was put inside. The temperature now is around -3c and -8c so when the battery goes out of power in a weather like this it will freeze up and be useless afterwards. Days are very short and sun never really gets much above the horizon, but still everything is covered in snow so you can actually see things in the dark too. I will snap you a good picture of a mini in the snow when I get the chance. I have only bought winter tyres for the van.

Tommi,
Are you coming down to the IMM in Holland? There's usually a big Finnish crew at every IMM.

Re: Flying Finn
Dont know yet about the IMM. Would be a blast though, but might be too busy with the new jobs etc. I shall give you a heads up if it is to happen for me. I still got my Mini on Irish plates too.
