New TVR still under wraps! (Vol. 2)

[sixor8]

I think it was Jackie Stewart's record from the late 60s, I saw him being interviewed on the itv4 show last night. They've had a fair bit of coverage on there.

Find the a Goodwood fb page and you have hours of great racing footage. This weeks speed week in place of the revival is mega.

You know I don't do facefish.......

But you should if you want to see what is the best Tv coverage of the most amazing driving all year. I’ve watched it continuously for 2 days solid.
The drivers seem to try harder to win at Goodwood than anywhere.
And yes thanks for the correction above, Sir Jackie is the record holder.

Just heard another one...
‘We’re not giving this any oxygen’

Gaaah...

No need to expose yourself to the evils of the Fakebook, Peter, it was on proper free telly today (ITV4 14:00) and more will be on tomorrow (ITV 1 14:00). I'm sure you can watch it on demand as DA suggested.
Some great racing today, I enjoyed the 1960's F1 and the saloons in particular.

Actually, 'price point' is one of those expressions that make me cringe... here's a few more...
Parenting
Re-purpose
Up-scaling
Third age

I'm pretty sure none of these expressions existed when I was a kid....

Any more out there?

Going forward
Not gonna lie to ya
Amazing
At the end of the day
My bad
It is what it is

Spot on
Although I have to admit to having used 'my bad' on a number of occasions.. I mean it's like sometimes you have to get down with the kids... like....

Just reading more coronavirus stuff this morning and came across this one in regard to dealing with the next six months:
"reframe the problem as a potential opportunity"
Reframe the problem.... really?

I remember some years ago doing some work for a big telecomms company who were based in Essex, and at some fairly high level meetings heard expressions such as "we need to socialise this", which seemed to indicate that a 'way forward' would then be found... And the final actions required for a successful outcome was to "blue sky it"... I mean really?

“I’m loving it”

Millennials simple reuse or fettling becomes some sort of amazing thing that only they do....

Oi Pushfit we've already done repurposed

You can’t blame Millenials. They clearly weren’t taught to speak properly by their parents, along with manners, selflessness or how to treat money.

For every st kid there are two st parents.

^^^^^^^

Very true.

Having four children who have had a shed full of friends visiting us over the years I have seen this so many times..........

The car is currently at Goodwood. Not sure if it will feature on the ITV4 show that’s about to air at 2pm.

Will that be on some sort of catch up?

Lots of photos of it on Instagram from various people, usually woth comments of 'the only one...'

[TwinKam]

I failed to mention the one that winds me up the most:
'lol' ...a sure sign that the user has sold their soul to Fakebook.
I am also getting pretty bored with the over use of the word 'vulnerable'.

Ab-so-lute-ly

I dread the day that under my roof someone dares utter ‘pull the trigger’. It’s not even valid in the correct context as you squeeze a trigger!

Kids just want to learn and if you abscond from your duty to teach them then someone else will fill that void and the chances are that it will be some semi literate gibbon on the social (media).

I seem to be in an endless battle to prevent my offspring from ending every sentence on an uplift regardless of whether it is a statement or a question. That’s my real bugbear.

Gosh could this thread become even more dull? Pics of fruit and now whinging about how the yoof speak.

Don’t forget some old people whinging about absolutely everything.

[TwinKam]

Makes a welcome change from the doomsayers whinging about new TVR ...even if that is was the theme of the thread

[N7GTX]

You can blame everyfink on social media. Just watch someone put up a photo of themselves and then the gushing, sycophantic comments of 'you look so luvly Beryl' or 'your [sic] gorgeous' or 'fab pic'..............
