William, what was the response from MM? I must confess to not being a subscriber.
I've bought the odd copy, but don't really like the style or the way it's written/edited, but that's a personal view.
I guess that it takes less effort to just collate figures from FB popularity contest and award the one with the most votes, the title...
...end...
I quite like how the two can blend. Facebook deals with all the attention seeking / benign questions / moronic questions / rtfm questions, leaving forums for actual discussion and searchable content.
Facebook can also be useful for events organising right enough.
If you have not cast your vote yet .there is still time to do so
The cars in front are New MINI Scotland
You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.
No I hadn't Davy, thanks for posting it up.
I'll see if I can find it and read the lot!
Wasn't super-keen on Mr Collins after last year's comments that he made (and was subsequently forced to delete) to Pete about GPOCUKs attendance at MITP.
He's unlikely to have changed my view having read this so far...

I was gonna stay out of it but I just couldn't hold my tongue when I woke up an hour or so ago:
"For the record, here's my two penn'orth for what it's worth:
It's nice to know that the winner this year will be safe in the knowledge that they have NOT won the award because of the effort they have put into organising runs and attending shows. The respect that they have from others in the wider MINI community. The regular mod/admin meetings they have attended to improve the club for their members. The hours of driving to attend events literally hundreds of miles away from home to meet up with other like minded folk. The help and advice given out when a question is asked no matter how small or insignificant it may seem. The constant attention to detail. The never ending quest to find ways and means to improve their club by asking "what do you, the members, want to do/see/visit/attend ?". The thoughtfulness of the members by sending texts/pm's as soon as you have any real life dramas, or problems, offering their kind wishes and offers of help no matter what your issue is. The non-MINI related events just to mix things up a bit and strengthen what are already lifelong friendships.
I know what it takes and is involved to win the award as I've been in the winning club for the last two years, GPUKOC in 2013 & New MINI Scotland in 2014.
There are no doubt a few clubs that will know in their hearts that they are just like the clubs I have described above and feel that they truly deserve the award but, sorry folks, it just ain't gonna be you this year.
May I suggest the name be changed from "M.M. Oscars" to the "M.M. X-Factor Style Most Votes Wins Award" ?
It's a shame that the winners will not have been carefully thought about, and all their efforts considered, and I feel that the "easiest option" to decide the winner has been taken instead.
This year will not be about those that talk the talk, it'll sadly be about those who shout the loudest.
I have not posted the club that I want to win as this year it just seems pointless in doing so.
Pete"
