We have now reached the IMM and some of the pics taken at the IMM were almost usuable.
I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

Queue to get into the IMM, so close but so far away....

Here he is again, the Miniman from Lysekil, Sweden who repaired the windscreen earlier on the trip.
Now he is repairing the bumper and a headlight after following one of the swedish caravans. He
looked the other way when the driver of the mini with caravan pressed the brake pedal.......

Ok, tents are up, rain clothes on, lets have some food and beer!

First night in the huge party tent: some Minilisters, some irish miniacs and then all of a sudden
"McGuard", trying to close the party down and forcing us out of the tent..........

Market with many fun things to buy! Early seats, early rims......

Shoppers from Sweden with new rain clothes and wellies,
amd panels of all sorts !

from custom pickup to very original early Mini.

Ireland vs Sweden!

Irish KUBB team, Vikings from Sweden, and swedish KUBB team

Kubb is an ancient game from Sweden where you throw wooden logs.
Perfect game for a lazy afternoon and
"perfect balance with a wooden log in one hand and a beer in the other" (irish statement)

For Sale, just to buy!

Cars and spares!

"Where did all these green aliens came from?"

"Hmm, maybe Ireland" says a swedish Viking girl
