just back home from going to the last days filming of the last epsiode of top gear.

 

well today i was picked up by a member of the club simon350s he travelled up from cardiff to collect me and take me to the top gear studios, we stopped off toget some brekkie first then got on the way, half way there i was knackered from trying to concentrate and talk, so i managed to have a slight sleep.

 

when we got there it was nice and sunny and the first thing we got was this....

It is so nice to see that friendship, compassion and good will is still alive and kicking.

 

You must have had a great day, and i am glad you were able to cope.

You lucky, lucky bar steward - glad you had a great day out mate, you deserve it.
