Finally, for your eyes only, I have the Milwaukee Minis Christmas party photos. We ventured through sleet and snow to gather at John Hawk’s Pub. Located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, John Hawk’s Pub is a little slice of Britain, complete with British phone booth outside. I had an excellent corned beef sandwich that makes my mouth water, even if it has been 18 days since last I tasted it. Our table did come up with an array of British foodstuffs not available on the menu. After consideration though, it was probably for the best, although it would be fun to have a deep-fried mars bar. On our way out, we took photos with Queen Elizabeth II. She was in full spirit with her Bessie the MINI inspired yellow dress and white hat, now available at your local Topshop. View Photos…

We got nametags this time. But, I'm still useless at remembering anything.

Once the rainy sleet had gone down to a light mist, I was finally able to get some photos.

A bit repeatious, but it was slippery and I almost fell in that river.

John Hawk's Pub was kind enough to put up a photo of Bessie on their wall. Wait, no, that's the Queen. Sorry...

The snow leaves her wet, dirty and just a bit salty. Believe me, this is pretty clean.
