26th March 2005 - Doris Arrives
So, here we are, my first update! It's been about a month since I agreed to be Doris' new keeper, but it's taken that long to put everything in place to make it happen. I'm well pleased, been grinning from ear to ear all day!
After visiting Spag on 24th/25th We decided the best bet was to bring Doris round on the trailer in the morning on 26th (saturday), which worked out well as the traffic wasn't too bad, despite it being Easter weekend.
Full Story & pics
For a quick introduction to Doris, the yellow
V8 Mini, please have a look at Doris' Story.
This way you can get an idea of the front wheel drive V8Mini project, without
having to try digging through years of rambling diary!
All old diary, gallery & vids will remain in their familiar
places, but Scriv antics & updates will be posted here.
For Doris specific things or to book the car for magazine, film
and stage(?) appearances use the following address :-)
