Hi ya all,

Just thought i would leave a quick message to say hello to every one and tell you a little bit about us because hopefully you will be seeing alot of us from now on.

My name is Simon Jeggo. My Wife Natasha and i have not long moved over from Essex in England to start a new life in your brillent country, we are curently living in Curraglass not far from Tallow in Co. Cork and are in the prosess of opening a 3000sqft pet shop in Youghal.

We are both 21 and nuts about mini's and as we have left the mini seen in England behind we are both keen to carry on the mini lifestyle in Ireland.
For the last 5 years i have been a mechanic in the British Army so if any one in the Co. Cork'ish area is in need of help please fell free to ask me and if i can help i will do my up most to do so.

At the moment i have a 01 plated rover mini cooper sport and we are curently lookin for a white 998 mini of any sort for the wife, we will be both be seeing all the southen guys and girls at the meets as soon as my pps number gets here and i can send off the last bits to get her imported. I will put some picutres on here as soon as.

My wife and i are gratfull to have the opitunity to be apart of the IMOC and i want to say thank you for having us and we are both really looking forward to meeting you all soon

Many thanks

Simon and Natasha Jeggo

Hi Simon,

Is it you I keep spotting recently turning over near Rathcormac on the Midleton/Tallow Road? I'm the far side of Fermoy in Ballyhooly. If you go 100m pass the church in Rathcormac there's a turn left which will bring you directly to Ballyhooly. Call me at 087-4195640 ig you want to see my Minis some time.

All the best,

Billy

Hi guys,
Welcome to the Sunny South East :wink: I don't live too far away from you either, so can't wait to see the cars and the pet shop too, when is it opening? Have been spotting a fair few Minis around our neck of the woods, we're not as rare down here as we used to be, but I'm sure your shiny gold wheels will knock spots off us.....! :D
