What a great community we have here. A community of gobstes, intent on making someone who probably feels pretty bad, even worse.

It's only the internet. Get over it. There's a real world out there somewhere

I can't believe this is still going. It's been good but enough's enough surely?

Oh dear indeed.


Good work

Watching the bullies at play really lowers the tone around here.

The young lad has apologised and JP has accepted the apology.

Garlick, IMHO the thread should be locked - for the sake of the OP, JP and PH.

ETA JP, we are waiting for some clues about the jeans in the other thread. Don't keep us in suspense. Ta.

Seems to me that George has fessed up, made his apologies and is probably feeling a bit of a knob,
so as good people, lets give him a break.

Needless to say it has been amusing to say the least.

Cheers JP

I hope you realise what's going to happen next..Mr Plato

When Phil Collins let slip he happened to like Steak Tartar he was presented with it wherever he went, ad nauseum....soon got fed up with that.

So now Mr Plato every wally under the sun will be presenting you with Birds Custard and hopefully a 'nice bottle of Red'.

You a Bordeaux or Burgundy man? Must make sure we presnt these with a smile and a friendly hand shake....form an ordely queue guys...

Seriously though...great to have you on Pistonheads and good luck for 2011

The dry cleaners destroyed them.

Apparently Michael Schumacher did it.. at a party, he was going around trying to rip the pockets off peoples jeans. Except that JP's fell apart quite spectacularly by the looks of things!

I've met him a few times as a good friend Ben Winrow was racing in the Seats and he was presenting the Racing Rivals programme.

Damn nice chap, best car presenter on the box by miles, only Jason can do a car test and call it "Diirrrty" and "woah dobin" Rather watch Jason than some annonymous gimp character in a white suit that can't communicate what they really think whilst driving (pre the reveal and not referring to Ben Collins either)

God knows what the op was expecting, I'd definately of been thinking "stalker" or "car jacking", the man took the time to shake your hand, he probably did that with trepidation.

edited to add that overtake where he nearly takes off tiffs nose in the Subaru was awesome, this programme needs an hour slot not 30 bloody minutes. TG is too old hat now, much prefer the format of Fifth Gear, just wish we had more of it.

Absolutely epic thread, full kudos to JP for replying!

I agree 100% about fifth gear, its st that top gear has an hour of the same old nonsense time and time again and the odd feature about a car, the specials are good but besides that like you say its old hat. Fifth gear I would love to be a full hour with no breaks, all about the cars and the presenters are just spot on, wouldn't change a single thing about Fifth Gear.

Again epic thread!

Just read through as much of this classic thread as I could in the limited time I have!!! All I can say is that I am dumbstruck!

One thing though, I still cant get the 'custard' reference although I've looked everywhere. Can someone please explain?

Posting yourself or your car with a tin of Bird's Eye to prove that you aren't Bstting.

Why Custard & why Bird's Eye? Sorry, I'm very naive!

It originated on barryboys.co.uk (you probably won't like the humour over there) for times when a person would say "I drive a Porsche and you all know nothing" etc. Proof would be demanded, usually by means of them taking a photo of a household item perched on said possession. Initially it was a loaf of bread, but it evolved into "Custard Proof" with the standard item being a can of Birds Custard. This was partly because it's hard to photoshop in all the curves and shadows, but mainly because custard it always funny.
Many have have been challenged to take the custard test, few have passed it. Plato is amongst them.

Anyway, I'm with the general assessment that this was epic until page 6, and it all got a bit sad after that. We were all enthusiastic youngsters once, and we all love cars and admire those lucky and talented enough to be paid to drive them. We live vicariously through their reviews, footage and racing of our dream cars. I'd have been star-struck meeting a racing driver at 17, in fact I'd probably be a bit lost for words nowadays. Fair play to Plato for playing along, but lets all leave the kid alone, eh? We've had our laughs.

Is there a smiley on here for giving oral sex? Or spewing?
