That's a great video. Does anyone have a downloadable link to it, or have a
way (FOC) to save a streaming video like this ?

Oooph, I dunno. Isn't polish going a bit far?

Not really. My Chiropractor got stranded in Denmark whilst visiting
her parents (she got the date for the ferry wrong - she is blonde and
pretty so I forgive her)...

Had a 1hr session today - heaven! I was given some Morphine by the
Doctor to get me over 'the festive season', got to admit that 2 weeks
of that left me a tad doolally - tis all a cloud, gradually clearing
(my excuse in case I was rude to anyone...) :)

You've got my sympathy Martyn - I've spent the festive season suffering
from the same problem. You've done better than I have in the
chiropractor stakes though - mine is male, dark and ugly but bloody good
at his job. Now he's back from his hols and has attacked my back I can
move again so I guess I should get into swapping engines this afternoon
so I can go out and play offrd.

I wish I hadn't watched that I've had an outbreak of Landroveritis again
:) proving why the Landy deserved to win the title of best car ever odd
hamster presented it tho as the dishevelled May owned a landy?
..BTW anyone blink and missed the grey Velar in the middle I would like to
see more of that clip which I guess is off an LR promo film so if you have
spotted a link for it please post as part of my therapy
Derek


 
....and Derek spake unto the tribes of Usenet, saying...

No, Hammond is the LR fan. I think the S1 he's driving in the clip is his
own. There was an article in one of the comics a couple of years back - he
has (or had then) a S1 and a 110, and he raved about all the qualities he
talks about in that clip. Sounded very sincere and a real fan - I've liked
him ever since.

I think May is more the Bentley/Alvis/Bristol type.

That clip is enough to bring tears to your eyes.

Funny things, celebs and landie shows. Celebs seem far less 'obvious'
(cite Ray Mears sitting chatting on the 101 club stand a few years
back - eveyone else just thought he were another sad, slightly
overweight, geeky mate).
