Have a very MINI Christmas...
Thought I'd share the project that the whole family worked on tonight. We all built houses. This one is mine...

I think this qualifies you for a lifetime membership as a true Enthusiast.

Have yourself a Mini little Christmas,
Let your xenons be light.
From now on our mods
Will be out of sight.

Have yourself a Mini little Christmas,
Make the 'charger play.
From now on the CHP
Will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be motoring,
If the warranties allow.
Hang a shining graphic, hear the people "wow!"
And have yourself a Mini little Christmas now.

Didn't MINI also have a gingerbread house plan? I think I have it around here somewhere. I never made the effort though.
