Why are they there? I emailed pics and a report from the wedding, and some info on the show next year,asking if they could a piece up on thier website and in the mag. I had a reply from both mags and if they can fit it in then they MIGHT include something about it, What are the mags for?  I know they will have to loose a bit of advertising space but surely a wedding featuring minis and raising money for charity is more interesting reading than adverts? ? ? Rant over |

Well the mags are getting worse, they are becoming advertising tat, theres at least 1 or even two less features than there were a few years back!

Gower run is in mini mag!! Nice write up & photos! Piece about the show too! Bit concerned it may upset some people tho!!  Goes on a bit about how its going to be the biggest show in Wales - photo of the Cardiff bay run & a caption underneath how the South Wales mini show is going to be better than the Cardiff run! Ouch! No pressure there then!   I know we want to advertise it but surely we need to keep other clubs on our side? |

I know Phil to be honest it looks like they are trying to 'big' it up - but it may have backfired - I'll get Coedy to scan it in for you.
We're in the Western Mail too! Double page feature on Mini's 50th Birthday & a bit of a rerun about the wedding !! ;D

I've Emailed Ade at Cardiff Mini Club as I only have his contact details Hi Ade,
I hope you don't mind me emailing but you are the only Cardiff mini club member I have contact details for. It has been brought to my attention today that there is an article in this months minimag about the show we are planning next year. I have not seen the article yet but I have been told that there is some wording in there that seems to make out that we are "Aiming to make it better than the Cardiff bay run" .
As it is myself that has been in contact with Craig from mini mag I am extremly disapointed that anything like that has been printed as in no correspondance have I stated anything along those lines. It our plan is to try and get all the Welsh clubs to play some part in the running of the show and more details will be passed on as we get a chance to organise things.
I really do hope this article does not do any damage between the clubs and It would be great if you could pass this to your members.
Best wishes, and hopefully catch up with you soon.
Phil |

Well it is only Cardiff Mini Club and I know they're quite thick skinned as it is.  |
