I am coming - on top of being a huge fan - I also work in public relations in the motorsport industry so it would be almost a "job requirement" lol
Its my 25th birthday only a few days after the shows too - seeing and maybe meeting the TG 3 would be a great present haha

I am not sure if Andy is coming - I will try and find out for you!

I work for the company who does pr/publicity/media for three of the V8 Supercar teams, Holden motorsport and a Fujitsu V8 supercar team. It is only me and the boss doing it but its great. If there are any vacancies I will let you know! haha
I met Matt Neal at a race a few weeks ago (he is going to be racing with one of the teams I work with) and I had to resist the temptation to ask about his Top Gear experiences lol -he is a really nice guy though!

Wowwwww!!! Am super impressed, Misspan! You must be surrounded by revheads all day long! ;D Also admire your superb restraint in not interrogating questioning Matt Neal about TG... ;D How on earth did you manage that.... ;D

Thanks Eclair - it is one of my dream jobs so I was very happy when I got the position! Good question - I will see Matt again in a few weeks, lets hope my restraint will last through that experience

I'm really happy for all you Aussies that the guys are coming your way. I wonder if they take the opportunity to do some filiming for TopGear. Australia would be a great place to film one of their specials (America, Polar, Botswana) or one of the races.

So oz does not want James? I wonder if Australia's lost will be our gain and we get more James in series 12 because the other 2 will be busy?

maybe james will be filming something else during that time and don't forget that he was also the last one to join for TGL this year.

I've only just read this....I wonder what it means? James does take an awfully long time (he can't help it, he's Slow) to confirm things. We just need to wait and see, eh? Driving a tank!!! Yay!!!

Post by lymaze on Aug 31, 2008 20:15:21 GMT
You're right aaurora, he does. Always confirms last but then he is very busy. Mind you, I don't think he's ever done MPH SA. I hope he makes it to Sydney for you all though.

I hope he makes it to Sydney for you all though. Hmmm, me too...although they couldn't have chosen a worse time for the tour. In February, I am weeks away from giving birth to a watermelon so unsure if I'd even be able to go anyway *sobs*

I hope James will be coming your way. As I posted before I can imagine them taking the opportuity to do some filming in Australia as well, and then they need James.
