MAMA smells the tulips

Posted on March 12, 2006February 17, 2017 by Ian C.

The trip to Smith college spring flower show (organized by MAMA) turned out to be a great excuse to get together with MINI owners! Sunday morning we all met at Theo & Carols house, where they provided coffee & food:

We then headed into Northampton (great town!) to the bulb show, loading up one parking lot with MINIs (and waving to a couple more MINIs that happened to be there too). The show is held in some beautiful old greenhouses, and there were lovely flowers and plants throughout!

Thanks to Theo & Carol for their hospitality, and to MAMA for the event!

MINIsOnTop Tshirts

Thanks to some quick work from Craig (COOPERation on MINI2), I had a few sample MINIsOnTop 2006 Tshirts to show off at todays MAMA event:

This is the “modern” design, featuring MINIs as well as the MOT / Monte Carlo inspired decal, and also featuring a little yellow duck. The design will be printed on Hanes Beefy T shirts, and having worn one all day and driven home in it, I can attest to its comfort 🙂
