Just a quiet Sunday
It's Sunday, it's the summer, and that means a day of relaxation and quiet reflection in the English countryside. So where better to go than to a stately home to drink tea in the gardens whilst listening to a string quartet? Er, to monster trucks, of course! Burgers and beer, hog roasts, stalls selling cowboy hats and bumper stickers that say "FCK THE ONLY THING MISSING IS U", and massive trucks spinning their wheels and jumping rows of cars.

It's funny, I was thinking the other day that you've been awfully quiet of late. Didn't realise you were getting in touch with your inner redneck :)
Apparently, the fuel the trucks use (ethanol?), produces two things: water and a mild form of tear gas. So as well as watching jumping trucks you get tear-gassed for free!
Maybe we should try and persuade boy racers to move to the same fuel. Or TNT.
