Observations from a small island, this week.
Discussion
Is Harry Kane only 23- he looks years older!
Why is "merge in turn" completely alien to 95% of the british driving public? So you MUST drive in single file for miles before or you're just "pushing in".
Are the "lefties" the most horrible ,nazi like hypocrites to walk this earth as they will not listen/respect/debate any opinion that differs from there own? ( from an observers point of view)
Do you feel guilty driving a VW Polo tdi 1.4 that apparently emits more NOX than a fully laden lorry ( is that even true!)
Will there be a huge increase in the number of young females ( facebookers/texters), young male van drivers (calls) with points on there licences?
Is Chris Harris actually an a
hole?
Will we all be back on horse and carts soon and even then the DVLA will deem it far too dangerous for some people?

1. You must not like diesel
1a. If you do like diesel, you must worship at its feet, accept it is just as bad for the environment, but love the Performance and Economy aspect of it
1b. If you do not like diesel, you have to insult everyone in category 1a.
2. You must not like New New Top Gear (2016), New New New Top Gear (2017-), or The Grand Tour. You are allowed to like New Top Gear (2002-2015) but only really enjoy the 2005-2010 era of the show. Or indeed, you must like older Top Gear (pre-2001). Essentially, you must like CHM era but only before the format became tired and over-scripted and whilst many of the challenges were fresh. Except car football.
2a. In spite of not like New New New Top Gear, you MUST comment on the thread about how much you didn't enjoy it, even though you watched it in full and told your wife to stop talking to you so that you could listen to it and listen out for every forced laugh, pause in conversation, continuity error, or failed joke, in order to back up your point about how much you did not like it.
3. Thou shalt not venture into NP&E.
3a. Thou shalt tell everyone how much you hate Trump, everyone who likes Trump is a complete cretin, and his entire Presidency is a joke.
3b. Thou shalt tell everyone how much you hate Corbyn, he's a complete joke of a leader, complete loony leftie, and has no credibility.
3c. Those who do not follow 3a or 3b must be prepared for a complete flaming and to be told how ridiculous they are and have their character judged entirely on their posts in those specific threads, even though it is clear that ones views are often very similar in other areas of the forum.
I am now more confused than ever. The internet should be banned along with mobile phones (particularly smart(arse)phones).
The world was so much easier in 1989 ( did I want to shag Karen or Joanne first).
Can anyone time travel me back 26/7 years? March 1991 was epic for me as i got a 4 year old Fiesta XR2 that was like a rocket compared to my dads Volvo 343 DL!!)

A question for the cognoscenti: Who is Chris Harris? 
Is he the bloke with that lime green fluffy duck?
For some reason there is a 'fashion' between some to dislike him.
Personally I think he fits in quite well to the TG team and if people allow it, without throwing their toys out the pram, I'd say he will mature in to a good TG presenter.

2.1a. You are only allowed to like New Top Gear (2002-2015) but only episodes between 2005-2010 if your opinion is in line with other poster's whos opinion is more important than yours. You will know this is the case when they tell you that you are wrong.

In spite of not like New New New Top Gear, you MUST comment on the thread about how much you didn't enjoy it, even though you watched it in full and told your wife to stop talking to you so that you could listen to it and listen out for every forced laugh, pause in conversation, continuity error, or failed joke, in order to back up your point about how much you did not like it.
2.2a You are not allowed to like Chris Harris (CMH) otherwise you're a fanboy. You cannot dislike CMH because he knows his stuff and is what Top Gear needs. Posters will be on hand to guide you how to post about CMH if you're unsure.
3. Thou shalt not venture into NP&E.
3a. Thou shalt tell everyone how much you hate Trump, everyone who likes Trump is a complete cretin, and his entire Presidency is a joke.

I was being a little tongue in cheek because I did happen to watch Mr. Harris on last night's edition of Top Gear. It was the first time I have seen the chap, and I wondered what his background was, and how he came to be chosen as a TG presenter. I had seen his name mentioned a couple of times on Pistonheads but other than that I had no idea whether he has a racing background or if he was a motoring journalist or just some bloke off the street.
Same with that Rory chap. Where did he spring from?
I must point out that I am in no way critical of their efforts, and wish them well.
I guess it must just be due to me leading a sheltered existence.
