James May has a Golden Cock
Dec. 27th, 2005 09:12 pmThat makes me happy :)
What also makes me happy is seeing 4 episodes of TG thanks to the Parent People's Sky box this morning. Brother-in-law got it for them as part of a deal where they get 2 sets of programmes, and the box, free for a year. Things that stick in my mind (a remarkably unsticky place) are (a) blimey, Jermy was almost attractive in 2003; (b) when did they start pronouncing Porsche with 2 syllables?, and (c) what does Letchworth have to do with Lamborghini*?
No more TG until the spring :(
Mum says she'll be watching Doctor Who this year, becasue David Tennant reminds her of "the little lad from Top Gear".
I'm back in Stockport, still consider it to be the Armpit of England, but at least it has cats :) And thinking of cats, Pratchett did the whole "cats have oversteer" thing in The Unadulterated Cat, in which he called it "Impatient Legs".
I love my new holes :)

*Though, being London commuterville, there is the story of how the Travelling Wilburys were formed after the 5 of them met for a long boozy afternoon in the Wilbury pub on the Hitchin edge of Letchworth
