Gave away my 1440p monitor to my boss for his new build, received this in return. Not a bad trade if you ask me :D


That is one of my favorites

Took one sip, died, and went to heaven.

Gotta finish rendering my NWIG video for tomorrow morning before I get too inebriated.

Well.... I pretty much failed to reach Brighton last night. about 2hrs/20miles later we ran into some hills which while weren't that steep. Were a literal slow slog up hill. and the moment you finished one, there was like a minute or two of downhill or level ground before another slog up hill began we're talking about 600-800ft inclines, I complete 3 of the hills but my legs were wrecked and i was told there would be more along the way. I decided to call it a day and head home. The ride home was an absolute slog. The thing that saved me was my local kebab shop being open at 4am - I walked in there, slapped £10 on the counter and said "give me all the kebab i can get" with a rather stern look.

Ride home was about 13miles as i took the train from the outskirts of croydon back into london. In total i covered just under 30miles and was in bed by 6am.....

Really disappointed i couldn't complete the ride to brighton. But I honestly would of hated life if i persisted

Well....

The public should be able to petition to have Chris Evans voted off presenting Top Gear for next season.

I quite enjoyed the show. but i think they would have done just fine even without Evans as part of the team. Matt Leblanc was great, I love the subtle way he presented with the odd American cheekiness here and there.
Id go as far as saying Idris Elba would make an excellent co-host that really complements Matt's personality but Idris has no interest in presenting such a show more than likely so its never going to happen :(

Chris Evans needs to go!

Not bothered about watching it to be honest. I don't particularly want Jeremy back, he was an asshole after all. The simple fact is it is not the show it was and shouldn't try to be. Not a fan of Chris Evans regardless.

Same old, same old.

They should have given us something new.....it was as if they stuck different faces on Clarkson and Hammond and chucked May in the bin.

Thumbs down from me.

They tried to hold on to the same 'magic' that the previous presenters had, but it doesn't quite work out like that - at least not when the presenters dont gel well and i think this is the case between LeBlanc and Evans. They dont have that kind of energy that complements each other like the old team did.

Evans was just trying too hard in general. The jury is out if the show flopped or not with many tabloids giving it mixed reviews.

Presenters aside, it just felt too cut and pasted together

::EDIT::

'Camaraderie' was the word i was looking for when describing the new presenters.

Evans' face is definitely more suited to radio and Leblanc brought nothing new apart from better teeth ........:D


It looked like the same production team, same director and same script writers too.
