I've picked up this report on plans for the SA Festival. Unfortunately it's very money-driven and rather negative (note the quote from the CEO for Joburg Tourism: "Asked if she was disappointed that the festival would be moving to Durban, she said: “Not really.”). However, I thought it might be interesting for any JMB members in SA. www.iol.co.za/dailynews/news/durban-to-get-top-gear-1.1202321 |

I saw that and if it goes it would be in June. Sounds like a lot of money is involved to get it going in Durban.

Rowland French tweeted that they want to do the States but haven't found the right city. And for the Canadians, I don't like you any more, they have 2 weeks planned soon. Check the tweet. Maybe Tortonto. tres fache

On a positive note Toronto is on the east coast, however if it is Vancouver, they have those venues from the Olypmpics, Ahh. They're looking for the right place in the U.S. There are plenty of them.Rowland did say they've been trying to come to the States for a while.
Dit can you post the tweets. Ms ineffectual here can't.

Which do you want, Vivienne? If it's the original article at the top of the page (the Durban one) I can copy and paste the text, if you're having trouble opening it.

We're looking at a 2 week tour in Canada soon.
I've wanted to do the states for ages, we just need the right city.
Reply tweets from Rowland French.
Are these the ones you were referring to, viv?

Jeremy's tweets came up on my feed and the exasperation was quite obvious. Looks like they've already caused some controversy. What would Top Gear be like without it?!

I think a lot of people follow Clarkson on Twitter just looking for reasons to tweet their disapproval. Could be the reason why he has more followers than James ;D |

Off topic a bit but i have to say that is a dreadful photo  IMO Jeremy must feel like banging his head against a brick wall sometimes - some people just don't have enough to fill their day I don't blame them for not doing interviews!! Nice hotel they're at though!!! ;D if my assumption is correct and i know you must not assume as it makes an ass....blah blah blah!!! |

If you put the three of them in a monastery there would be complaints. Before people start complaining about room prices they need to look at the exchange rate of the rand against the pound.
Really jealous of where the lads are stopping. Even more jealous of friend who is going home to durbs next week, but then realised the old farts will have been sent home!
