We were in England Thursday night to Sunday night, and apart from the 35 other Minors attending the same event as us we didn't see a single Minor on the roads. Spotted a rose taupe saloon hiding in a service parking area behind the Queensway in Bletchley on Sunday morning, but no others parked up anywhere.

We drove through the usual M25 traffic jams, along potholed B roads in Beds & Bucks, swung around countless mini and maxi roundabouts in Milton Keynes and faced SNOW driving through Towcester. I lost count of the number of folk taking photos of our car in pub carparks, and even on the M25( he wasn't driving).

Today in Strathaven Lanarkshire -beside my 'modern' . Local lad told me there was another Trav alongside it earlier in the day Nice looking Traveller - sadly poor timber... Has MMOC badge - anyone on here ?? Just shows how small a Traveller is - my Dacia is by no means a big car - but towers over the Minor!

On Saturday there was a very nice lime green Minor van parked outside a shop in Chloraka village just outside Paphos. I expected to see Minors at the Paphos Harbour Classic Car show on Sunday but there wasn't a single one. Lots of VW beetles, Mercedes, Minis, Land Rovers, Morgans, a few MGs including a wonderful 1937 large SA saloon that looked better than new.

Peat brown Traveller on Sir Isaac Newton Way in Rochdale around 6:15pm in the middle of the worst hailstorm I've seen in many years. Poor sod...
