There is a show on the BBC called TopGear which I'm only mildly interested in as, you got it!, it's all about cars. But the show compares and contrasts each car, races it on a track, has celbrities race for time best time trials, from sports cars to luxury cars to affordable cars.
The other week, I cried of laughter thru this episode when Jeremy drove the Peel P50, the smallest car in the world.
YOU WILL THANK ME AFTER YOU WATCH THIS!
hehehehehe

BBC PROMS
In preparation for Lee's Duathlon tomorrow (details and photos on that to come tomorrow!) we are having a very relaxing evening in, watching the last night of the BBC's aunnual Proms. (aka Promenade Concert) Held at the Royal Albert Hall, conducted by David Robertson, this symphony orchestra performance is seen world wide. Are you watching?!
While the Royal Albert Hall is filled with the better dressed - even though there is NO dress code! - for 5pounds you can watch on big screen in parks in Country Down, Glasgow, Swansea and of course London's Hyde Park (Bring your chairs and warm clothes of course!) We of course are cozy at home watching on TV.
I haven't figured out how to put a video on here yet, but click this link below to watch a performance from 2008.

A little history for you; This is the 115th year the concert has run, the first on the 10th of August, 1895.

NEW FAVORITE!
I have a new favorite show. 2nd to LOST of course, but temporarily moving Family Guy to spot #3. This amazing show is the BBC's Dragon's Den.
So this show consists of entrepreneurs pitching their ideas in order to secure investment finance from these established multi-billionaire business experts in the UK. There are 5 'dragons' and MAN is it good! I love watching the entrepreneurs squirm with the in-depth questions they cant answer.... BUT ... the ideas these people come up with..some are BRILLIANT! One in about 10 there is a gem (or at least that's what the show will air. There is a lot more online..) So normally a product designer (this is usually who comes in) says they want something like 100,000 pounds for 15% of the company ... and the dragons may or may not invest but will never match the exact percentage.
THE DRAGONS
Some highlights from the Season opening show ::
Rupert Sweet-Escott an aviation expert. He stutters and is seen as a joke until the dragons ask deeper questions about his past. Watch it and see!
Reruns, new episodes... I don't care... I want to see more!!!
