[100% veg*n ] cruel delicacy

[Guest guest]

the program in question was " jeremy clarkson meets the neighbours " BBC2 Fri

May 24th. the prog. is on currently each fri. last week he was in france,

this week it is belgium. clarkson is an obnoxious character; anti-veggie,

pro-hunting, pro-smoking, ... altho' he has given that up momentarily,

anti-speed limits, anti-enviromentalist etc. he is travelling in an E-type

Jag, a roving road hog if you will, i think it was he who coined the

expression " petrol-head " . i'm sure the prog will be repeated in the future.
