I remember this being a MASSIVE shock at the time. The story behind how they got it to happen is just as good as the moment of the reveal itself. ​

Was looking on Google Maps and in the town of Moron, you will find a marker saying 'Jeremy's closed pub'

James May wanted some fish and chips and had a drone (built by one of his mates) deliver the order to him. Not a bad way to hawk his gin in the process! 😅

From video description: “Witness a key moment in aviation history. Never mind colonising Mars, this is the world's first fish and chips delivery by drone.”

Go and steal that Renault.

Jeremy Clarkson had such a good time celebrating his birthday in Miami that he was able make a column out of it once he returned home. In my view, perhaps he would think differently if he had to live full-time in Florida amongst the locals there. Here’s a preview:

“America is broken. San Francisco is awash with fentanyl enthusiasts who hang around on every street corner like an army of zombies, Minnesota is a hotbed of state theft, New York is being run by a full-on communist, and if you so much as step out of line for the briefest of moments, a government sponsored redneck with military trousers and an ICE hat will shoot you in the middle of your face. And on top of all this, there’s a president who thinks he’s Jesus. However, flying in the face of all this awfulness, there’s [Florida](https://www.thetimes.com/topic/florida), which by all accounts is not broken at all.”

(Usual disclaimers apply, especially since he’s focusing on the United States in this one.)

After taking some time off to observe his 66th birthday, Jeremy Clarkson resumed normal service in his Sun column. He reacted to a recent report where a British animal rights activist unsuccessfully attempted to liberate a lobster from a restaurant tank. He then drew this conclusion:

“I don’t mind someone being a vegetablist if they can’t abide the thought of eating an animal. I get that. But the idea of not eating an animal for environmental reasons is idiotic.

“So tonight, if you really want to save the world, have a steak and garnish it with a leg of lamb and a sausage.”

(Usual disclaimers are always part of normal service.)
