So VJ, are you having a bit of a tour in your 4C? Lucky man if you are. (My 911's been sitting in my garage for quite a few weeks now - really have to get her out for a spin at some point.)

Talking of 'tour', anyone seen 'The Grand Tour' (ex Top Gear crowd) yet? I've watched all 4 episodes. Quite enjoyed the first one, but it's been on a steady decline since then. I'm through with seeing the contrived dialogues, the stupid 'challenges', and 3 well-past-their-prime presenters being idiots rather than talking about cars. I really liked 'Chris Harris On Cars' on Youtube, before he stopped for Top Gear. I reckon something with the production values of TG/GT and the aforementioned CHOC would be really, really cool.

Any thoughts?

Hey Mani,

Yup 4C and a lot of open roads Wink

Last few weeks, when ever possible have been inspirational trips of some sort related to music or not ....

Let's see in the same trip, I passed by Lake Sherwood (right around the pic of Mulholland up there)... home of
Pete Sampras, one of my tennis heros
Paul Anka https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4XHe6dSngt0
Tom Petty https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6vWTtx_PxPo
Brittney Spears .. ( non inspirational) Shocked
Sherwood Forest for Robin Hood movies
Also told some history with the Ratpack

Self indulgent thought process for the intellectual growth..  Happy

I've been following Chris Harris, since the closure of TG series, ..... I find him more "real". Not had the chance for the new GT

Cheers,
VJ
