MINIsOnTop 2005 – The Trivia Contest

On Friday, after washing GBMINI, I headed north to Gorham, NH; we drove part of the Kancamagus Highway & Bear Notch Road that everyone drives on Saturday – sadly it was wet at times (an end to GBMINI being clean!)

At the Town & Country Inn (the adopted headquarters for MINIsOnTop) “MOTOR”, the MINIsOnTop Operations Room, was used for a general meet & greet area and then later for a Trivia Contest.

The team that I joined, initially called “Three Men & Two Women”, expanded in members & hilarty as the evening progressed, changing its name on the way to “Breast Milk” – our answer to the question of “most popular organic beverage” … apparently the correct answer is coffee, but we preferred our answer 😉
In the end, our teams skills especially including Joes car knowledge, gave us a clear win and the award medal!

As I joined route 128 on my way back home to Gloucester tonight, a Chili Red / Black ’05 MINI passed me – we joined the queueing traffic approaching the first Gloucester rotary, and the owners pulled right and alongside, so we could chat in the slow moving traffic – they have only had their MINI a month:


Great taste in MINI colors – right down the black hood stripes & chrome interior!
The owner, Myrnah, is called “My” – hence the license plate MINIMY 🙂

MINIsOnTop 2005 – nearly time!

Today I received my “care package” for MINIsOnTop 2005:

THANK YOU STEVE!

Included:
Grey T-shirt with “MINIsOnTop logo” design on front and “MINIsOnTop decal” design on back;
Name tags for me & Margaret (thanks Diane);
Big yellow “MINIsOnTop” antenna ball;
Green “MINIsOnTop” static cling decals, theoretically to put on GBMINI#3 – but the green will clash 😉
“Raffle” tickets to be used to “bid” for one or more of the many donated door prizes;
Vouchers for lunch and for the ride up Mount Washington on the auto road;
Info on the White Mountains region of New Hampshire, and the Kancamagus Highway.

If you are registered you will soon receive your package too (remember the T-shirt and vouchers are “paid for” items).
