Reminded me of a certain popular T-Shirt when I lived in Texas:

(US members may remember it, but the explanation's way too long to go into.)

The amazing shots from the new Earthflight programme!

Wow, that amazed me. Nature is so beautiful!

Top Gear at Imola!

Not sure about Hammond but May & Clarkson must be the 2 most unfit blokes to cane a car round there. Jeremy looks like he is 7 months gone and he still manages within 3 secs of the Stig!

I know a lot of it is in the filming but kudos anyway. 8)

One more for the Italian Stig. 8)

Even the TG haters have to admit that they do show some beautiful parts of the countries that they visit. I drove from Rome to Ancona 2 weeks ago. Pretty much west to north east, amazing scenery, snow capped mountains, interesting roads, optional speed limits. :D Even the rental Pug 308 SW diesel went well.

Like owning an Alfa (had 4), driving in Italy is something everyone should do at least once. Rome is an education, go cart driving in a big way and once you are used to it, great fun. Just remember to slow down in Milan - they drive almost normal there. :oops:

If you can't be a good example, then you might as well be a terrible warning

The thought of Peter being free to terrorise the Bristol motoring public by himself....

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

I bought $10 USD worth of raffle tickets last week for an iPad 2 being given away this week. I got a call earlier and I'm now the proud owner of a $10 iPad 2!

I have no idea what I'm going to use it for, but for 10 bucks, what the hell!

Presumably you tipped someone off. He was pulled over in the centre of Brissol at half past midnight! :lol:

I've Just read a SENT message on my ebay account....

Top tip...

Offering £45 for a bummer with impact damaged isn't the best thing to write, not when you're trying to brooker a deal.... :lol:

I couldn't work out why he said no....



Then it clicked.... Bloody auto correct!
