And we've officially exhausted that avenue! Maybe we should just forget TG and just meet up down the pub when it's on.

25 minutes to decide whether yet another 1 hour of my life will be wasted or enriched.
They are apparently playing football with cars - YAWN - haven't they tried this once before? I hope we are not paying for a repeated 1/2 hour of car football ..... !!!!!

Just don't bother watching it, obviously it will be another hour of your life wasted if you do. You'll probably feel more enriched spending that hour reading a few more chapters of Tony Blair - A Journey.

OK, I know ...... I was just soooooo excited about those first 10 minutes that I was all beside myself.
Now, however, we get back to the boring 'set-up' road race ....... BORING!!!!!!

Yep .... as predicted, and as done many times before.
This time I enjoyed the first 20 minutes .... the other 50 was mindless OLD, TIRED, bollox.

Yeah that road race sucked. "Oo the ferry is taking forever", well fecking use the tunnel then! And when he gets off the ferry - there's no-one else around, they waited for everyone else to go before setting up acamera on the ground and filming it. Also the number of times the range rover camera car was in shot was ridiculous. So basically they only go as fast as a Range Rover no matter what car it is

JC did say one time that the races were real and most of the footage was shot on the return leg. IMHO they're about as real as Coronation Street, and getting just as tedious.
