Ah ha the old bar 6 thing we discussed this when itwas said. Beckstar found it was a scale made by Kinsley (i think) of with absolute heterosexual being 1, bisexual 3/4, and 6 absolute homosexual. It is also a gay bar.
So another gay joke, basically ;D
Bar six was also a chocolate bar.

I expect James had a melancholic (sp?) moment, it was over the mood sensing steering wheel. I'd imagine the steering wheel would be black where the hands are, and then fade to pale yellow.

I was shocked to see that vid, thanks for the link, Stigalicious.
Anyway, I think I understand what James said. I sometimes do think like that. It's not because I'm depressed or near suicidal; it's because I think about my life, the things that happened in my life, the world or just about anything that I feel like I'm not doing anything right or worthy. Basically it's just a thought. Do anyone thinks the same?
Most importantly, what's about the bar 6? That's the one I'm worried the most. If bar 6 = homosexual, I pray that it's just a joke...

I'm going through a bit of that at the moment. Some friends are having a Silver Wedding party in a few weeks & although I want to go & celebrate with them, it will really rub in, in so many ways, the fact that I've never met "Mr Right". Most of the other people there will have partners/families with them & they've negotiated a special rate for a doublke room. Fat lot of good that is for me on my own!
Waking up alone in the house on Christmas morning didn't help either.
I expect I'll snap out of it in a while.

There are many bonuses to being single and there are plenty of unhappily marrieds, double rooms or not. Give it a go, you never know it might not be like that at all and it might be quite a lot of fun! Have a think about it anyway... |

You might go MF and find a man sitting there feeling just like you.  I also see the positive and negative of the situation. I know so many unhappy couples and many happy singles. I always think I could be with someone who smacks me about, cheats on me, does nothing to help, drinks. I have a friend who is in an abusive relationship but she is clinging to it by her finger nails or she will be a "sad single" as she puts it. She's never been able to survive on her own - I think that's even sadder. |

Belive me, I have been in both good and bad relationships and I've spent enough time on my own that I know I can survive. But I like to share my exoperiences with someone else and to have someone there when I need them.
Even if there is someone at the party, chances are they'll be local, ie 130 miles from where I live & I have NO intention of moving to the West Midlands!
Now Hammersmith I could cope with...
BTW, Thanks for the offer, Lew, but I have plenty of nephews & a neice to choose from if I want to borrow any kids!

I had a friend who to quote 'can't live without a man' so continually got herself tied up with a succession of men (I use that word guardedly  ) who knocked her about. But she was happy (she reckoned). There are times when something goes wrong that I sometimes wish there was someone here to help me sort things out but then I think of the complications that would bring. Finally decided a few years ago that men just aren't worth the hassle. However, I would be more than happy to give them another go if a certain Mr May turned up on my doorstep looking for board and lodgings ;D |

All just an indicator, I think, that James is a deep and emotional thinker, and good for him!

I think it was just Jeremy having yet another little dig at James about the gay thing and because it would take way too long to explain James told him to shut up - but notice the big smile that crosses his faces immediately afterwards. I think all deep thinkers are prone to moments of melancholy - all the intelligent blokes I've ever met have their black moments - usually fleeting but nevertheless present. It doesn't mean they're unhappy as such, merely asking themselves questions. I was very suddenly widowed last October and believe me, I've endured plenty of black moments since then and questioned my continued existence on the planet. But I'm still here, thanks to the love and support of friends and family and chiefly the wonder that is my adored cat, who does so much to remind me that I have him to live for if nothing else. You know what has cured me of many a dark moment though? Watching episodes of TG, a well as Wine Adventure and 20th Century and Top Toys..... I've been made to laugh until the other sort of tears run down my face, and that's such good therapy. My hubby and I used to laugh a lot, many times a day, and so it's important to me that the house continues to have laughter within it. It honours his memory.... And now, off I go before I hit the melancholy button....!!!!!!!!  |

aww harper, been thinking about this most of the evening and hope we can on this board make life a little lighter I agree, I think those who are real thinkers have their moments of deep contemplation, but in another thread you wrote you mentioned the big kid ;D (which the silly sod is), so harper no more melancholy and celebrated this thing called James (big tw*t ;D) that joins us all together ;D |

the whole 'wasting your life' thing is the same for me, even though I'm only 18 I still sometimes get the felling I could have done more with my life and wonder where my life is leading. Like, will I ever get to where I want to be or will I be stuck in oblivion forever?
Then a good song comes on and I snap out of it. But yes, it's happened to me many times.......

This is my first post here - I was going to just come on to read but I've just read Harpercat's post from February and I could have written that myself. I lost my husband in February, and know just what she means about the - well - comfort almost that I've had from watching James and the lads.
It's good to be able to laugh at/with witty, intelligent men, and Lord knows, there's few enough of them about. So TG and my three cats (including the one I'm still speaking to despite the fact that he brought a mouse in nearly four weeks ago that refuses to leave) have helped to keep me going. And thanks to Dave I've never been short of TG.
Just booked tickets for MPH + Top Gear Live in November. I'll struggle a bit, as Husband and I went last year, but I'm determined to go - and enjoy it!

Aww, I am sorry for your loss. I know what you mean on that one, about getting comfort from the guys, Jeremy was more of a comfort to me than anything else when my Grandad passed away, that is when I had the time to 'get into' TG and the writings of him that I was linked to by a mate. I don't think they know just what they mean to people. I hope you do have a good time at the show and he may not be with you in body, but I am sure your husband will be there in spirit. |
