Default Clarkson's latest rant!

Personally I think Jeremy Clarkson is a really funny guy.....he's the ultimate wind-up merchant!

Well his latest rant was about expats!.....basically he rips into expats in all the different countries. Here's his view of Spain....

"Another popular destination is Spain, which is home these days to 761,000 Brits. Are they all brain surgeons? Inventors? Did Sir Christopher Cockerell invent the hovercraft and then move to Puerto Banus? No. Spain is where you go when you’ve sold your taxi."



So....did you get a good price for your black cabs?

Clarkson got that one wrong jdr....cos they don't start taxi-ing till they get here!

After having previously had successful British businesses......while serving in the Army/Navy/RAF/SAS......simultaneously!
