Still got the Monday Morning Blues myself. Seem to have spent a lot of time catching up on sleep as well as two huge piles of washing. Still haven't cleaned the car and daren't calculate how much I spent on fuel. Whatever it was, it was worth it.

Crackin' footage Rog!!! But I must add that I really do think you need to consult one of your colleagues, your choice of "I'm too sexy for my shirt" is beyond belief.............worrying in fact

Default Tonight's Top Gear

Sitting watching Top Gear - lovely run along the Col de Turini, little bit of "tunnel blasting" (to quote Clarkson), views of Lake Magiore - thinking "been there, done that, got the t-shirt". Just waiting for the Swiss plod to jump out and enquire whether Cap'n Slow is driving a rental before escorting to them to the nearest border. Then they brought out the Stelvio.......

Where Track Masters lead, Top Gear follows.....

Maybe we should try Lichtenstein next, but not when there's a bike race on it

Ha ha, I agree.
I was thinking I was glad mrk and Stormy organised our trip and not Clarkson, otherwise we might have been staying in the middle of some Italian version of Hull after driving 300miles of motorway.

So to Mrk and Stormy,

Cool

TG so thats what the roads looked like :-)

Thank god Mrk and I drove the roads previously in a 1.2 Lancia so we could enjoy the scenary at semi warp speed.

Will ring clarkson and offer him my Spec C and introduce the admiral's guide to driving sub 10 minute laps in a Jag. That said even Clarkson does not wear "Im to sexy" T shirts.

Euro Combo/blast T shirts have 1 order anyone else

Looking forward to seeing some of you at the Autumn Blast at Goodwood dont forget to pay me this week.

Default Yes Officer....I COULD see past the lorry and all the way through the hairpin......

Cracking vid Martin - I love the PiP effect!! And it's a £$%^&ing good job the boys in blue (or rather green) didn't look back too far at your footage when we were stopped
