Just like your post too, you mean?

Somebody has to call it out. And I don't post the same thing, day after day, week after week.

Come on, be my little ray of sunshine.





















You know you want to...;)

You've posted 30+ times on the TG thread

I was hoping for a panel based discussion on the merits, or otherwise, of hydrogen fueled, cross continental freight.

you mean they build a hydrogen fuelled rocket propelled train/reliant combination and strap a container on the front?

And how many times have I told people to stop moaning about people moaning?

[willy wombat]

I’m optimistic, fingers crossed.

[TurboHatchback]

Looks promising, apart from the road trip specials this is the sort of thing they have traditionally done best.

That did look like a nice 2CV though

[Smollet]

I shall make my judgement after I’ve watched it and not before as seems the norm these days.

[Nico Adie]

I could, and have, watch any number of hours of people driving/talking about/fixing Citroen SMs so I'll certainly watch this.

Looks good, I'm sure there will be people who will come a long and moan about it, probably moaned about the last one. Said they wouldn't watch this then moan anyway.

Yep, probably about 50 forum pages worth.

When you say this do you not realise, it's as tedious repetitive and pointless as the thing you're 'predicting' will happen?

We know it's going to happen. Being superior and getting uppity at others for habitually moaning is just habitual moaning. Nobody learns anything, so it's just more noise that everyone has to wade through.

It's true. First there are the people who main about the show itself. Then there are the people who moan about the moaners. Now here we are moaning about the people who moan about the moaners.

The 'joke' was that Hammond is small, so the doorknob would need to be near his shoulder height for it to be 'funny'.

Yes but like any “joke” you have to take it at face value. As soon as you engage reality on most they cease to be funny. Come on it was obviously just a quick quip at the door height in comparison to a person who is well known to be short.

[Doofus]

Yeah, i know. I was just being grumpy.

[biggbn]

Have been rewatching Grand Tour, some really good episodes...and some that are worse than anything Top Gear in all its latest various guises has put out. Perhaps we over romanticise CHM?

Bit controvertial I know but what is the obsession with spectacular views. Its just geology and weather . Up close what you are looking at is mud and dirt and rock.

Jeez you sound like fun.

Probably lives in a maisonette and is glued to some game on his pc.

New ep soon? They must have stocked up on footage of mud and dirt and rock from a distance lol.

[SydneyBridge]

Watched half and fairly average so far, might watch the rest later
