Can't Take The Convict Out Of Them!

Ros Reine's scathing article about Jeremy Clarksons bad behaviour last week made me chuckle:


 


"Whether or not Top Grub host, sorry Top Gear host, Jeremy Clarkson decides to grace these shores with his presence again, let's make it very clear. We don't want him.


Clarkson, the son of a pair of former tea cosy salespeople, has been acting like a superstar since he arrived in Sydney."

'But back to Thursday night's drama, when Clarkson insulted Sydney Harbour by calling it a "river".'


 


He called Sydney Harbour a river? :OX-(


 


"If our glittering emerald sea is a river, then what's the Thames a stormwater drain?"


 


Yeah! X-(:^O


 


Oh dear, silly old Jeremy never has been known for being terribly PC has he? I watched Top Gear a cpl times and enjoyed it,  but I've never been into motoring much so I switched after a few episodes.

I would have hung up on Kyle Sandilands as well, I mean, who's heard of Kyle Sandilands in the Circles that Jeremy Clarkson moves in? And anyway, those two big overblown egos would have soon exploded in each others faces.


 


 


 


 



 


It would have been funny if it was a face to face interview, I think a lot of people would have enjoyed watching how that ended :^O

I think that's what turned me off the show, they destroyed so many fine vehicles with their infantile mid-life crisis tests and races.

the car was ready to be wrecked and at about 4 miles to the gallon the swimming pool was the best place for it, btw I thought it was funny.

I think that people don't realise how many are into the world of motoring and therefore Clarkson is a "superstar" in that world and to most his rudeness is also his humour and for anyone to be offended means he achieved what he wanted.


 


I think it best not to react to visitors to our shore and their comments about us and our land, it takes away their superiority if we choose to ignore them.

The only difference between men and boys is the price of their toys!

Well I don't care what Mr Jeremy Clarkson does or says or what he likes to play with, but calling Sydney Harbour a RIVER is INEXCUSABLE in my books, and will earn him the infamous

Icy have a look of google maps and see how big Sydney harbour really is compared to some, to someone who has traveled around many places in the world and seen realy big harbours Sydney would seem a river.


 


check the coast of NSW at 50km and it looks like a river and many other places along the coast are much bigger, like Botany bay and Port Stevens
