Stefan still maybe

It's the story that just won't go away. It was way back on the 1st day of this glorious new decade that I reported the strange tale of Stefan GP.

In case this one slipped by you, they've got the cars that would have been Toyota's 2010 entry and have funding from the rather unlikely source of the Serbian Government. (Check again. It still isn't April the 1st.)

Apparently, Bernie has checked with the Prime Minster of Serbia (as you do) and is happy that they're sufficiently funded. They've even shipped some gear out to Bahrain in the hope that they will be allowed to race.

Drivers names doing the rounds are Ralph Schumacher, Kazuki Nakajima and Chritian Klein.

Sounds very much like they are more prepared than the Campos of US GP teams. All they need now is a yes...

(Weird listening tonight - remember Jeff Wayne's Musical Version Of The War Of The Worlds? Yeah, of course you do. Ever hear of his Musical Version Of Spartacus? No?! I don't think many people have. Probably because it's not very good. And the track I'm listening to has Catherine Zeta Jones on it too...)

Faking it for real

By
As Donald “I’m really great, everybody says so” Trump is so fond of pointing out, there is a lot of fake news around nowadays. Honest. Your friends at Facebook think so too, and have recently been publishing their top tips for spotting false news – by placing them as ads in newspapers. Considering they came in for considerable criticism themselves, that’s like shouting “Squirrel!” and pointing at a tree whilst you hastily kick away the prize begonias you just trampled. To help you make sense of this (and because I’m a caring person), I thought I’d run you through their suggestions and help to explain them for you. I know. I’m lovely. 1. Be sceptical of headlines READING THIS ARTICLE WILL IMPROVE YOUR SEX LIFE!!! And explain that catchy headlines, or stuff all in capitals might be a bit iffy. 2.

Going Underground

By
The US presidential election and Brexit must have made me more nervous than I’d realised. It seems I’ve created an underground bunker without realising I was doing it. Still – we’ve all done that at some point, right? No? Ah... In that case, the fact that I have inadvertently turned my cellar into a rudimentary survival shelter, just in case it all kicks off, demonstrates a severe case of bunker mentality. Fretting about Donald and his wall, and Hillary and her emails, clearly made me more paranoid that I thought about the possibility of WW3 kicking off. Whilst attempting to find a specific size of imperial washer the other day (turns out I’d mis-filed it in the nut cabinet – Tsk!) I was struck by what a lot of jam and chutney we have in the cellar. And I do mean a LOT. There are boxes of boiled-up sugar and fruit and more boxes of boiled up vinegar and fruit. We’re still only part way through 2015’s output too. Then there’s the plastic containers holding pasta in various for...

When in Rome...

By
...have a Grand Prix. Seems that the idea of a street race around Rome is on the cards. That'd be pretty exciting, wouldn't it? Any other suggestions? Basingstoke? Didcot? Reading? "And here's Alonso on Broad Street, just past Heelas and getting dangerously close to the Marks & Sparks cardigan display".... No? OK then. (More MP3 toons - Enigma "La Puerta Del Cieulu")
