Shameless plug for Reliant Robin in need of new loving home.
Reaching out to anyone that might be or might know of any "eccentric"
lovers of Reliant Robins. My mum is selling her Reliant Super Robin (Mk1) after having it for 30 years. Needs a bit of TLC in a WheelerDealers kind of way to bring it back to immaculate but for an enthusiast with a bit of time is a brilliant mothballed base to tidy up. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Reliant-Ro...-/112203348013 goo.gl/6D3Hw5 Who knows, perhaps a homeownershub person might be interested.. :) Cheers - Pete |

Just "Pig" We had to create an extra paved bit in the front garden which is known as "the pig place" :) Should fly through an MOT and I'd think the driver seat could be switched for the passenger seat as neither have any adjustment knobs. You can go round roundabouts and right hand bends quite a bit faster than left handers without any passengers. |

Although I like TG I think that Clarkson does better work with his documentaries. It is a shame he did not do more of that. With TG the series before he got the push was tired however to be fair the series in which he left was refreshing. I thought that Matt LeBlanc was a lot better that I thought he would be and its good to see him doing another season. Perhaps they can get rid of Eddie Jordan. With the Amazon TG I thought it may have been a cross between TG and James May's Man Lab (which was ok but needed something). |

I'd thought perhaps the majority of the ideas came from the three of them. But an interview with JC on the BBC the other day said otherwise. They relied on writers and researchers. And the BBC had failed to secure new ones or whatever with plenty of fresh ideas. JC implied because they were either not well enough paid and or given the credit. So for the Amazon version to be a success will be down to a decent production team. And US TV companies tend to be very good at this - while they have the enthusiasm for it. But you won't get the best staying for long if it isn't a success. -- *It sounds like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying.
