Blogging live from the car caper in the lead with...

Chris Evans | 12:37 UK time, Friday, 3 July 2009

FAB 1.

Just left Haynes motor museum.

What a place and what a story - gonna try and get one of the family on next week to tell all.

The cars are behaving themselves and so are the drivers ! They all had to pass a breath test this morning for insurance purposes which they all did and are treating the cars with the respect they deserve but not forgetting to give them a good blast when the roads open up - which the cars love.

It's good to see and hear all the cars together like that - thrilling.

On stage four at the moment Yeovil to Salisbury.

This really is so cool.

Quick swim and maybe a little nap when we get to Chewton Glen and then back on the radio live at five from the croquet lawn - all very mange tout.

Xxx.

Clp and The Magnificent 7 - somewhere in South West England.

As we suspected, you're a top bloke. Letting folks who've given a stack'o'wad to CIN play with your fantastically well stocked toy box. Hats off to you.....again.

ARF - crazy horses by The Osmonds (fits your day, no?)

Other than that i can only recommend you listen to both Bingo's and CTD's ARF suggestions - both FINE tunes (I'm in love with my car / Don't stop me now - Queen)

Enjoy your day and I hope the only things that break are insects on your windscreens.

Looking forward to 5

This will sound most bizarre but we've just been warching and old episode of "The Herbs". Classic. Aplojees to anyone under 40.

Baggie: I think I've already mentioned that we are coming out of our ceremony to "Bring Me Sunshine". You can't get bouncier than that! (3 weeks tomoz!)Anyhoo, we have also put together 2 CDs full of jolly love-type music for our sit-down meal (won't call it a wedding breakfast as it's at 4 in the afternoon) so if teen1 can help me I'll fb you the playlist in case anything takes yer fancy.

Heard some of tonight's show, sounded fab even though to be honest I don't really "do" flash cars.

The bad were different, but good. Imagine The Shadows crossed with The Beach Boys with some Gerry Anderson theme tunes thrown in for good measure. And the encore was the theme tune from Pulp Fiction .... you know the one. And they don't have a vocalist.

Different, but a good evening.

Then we went to the pub next to the Arts Centre which was full of skinny nubile creatures who should have been in bed hours ago!

Confidence in abundance, a job i love, the weekends away with yous lot, friends i've known since my teens and 20s. i now also feel sexier than i have ever felt in my life and yes, i love it.

Booboo has made a full recovery and is now a cough-free bear once more! We may have a long wander down the canal later and see how many ducks we can find to chase.

Happy Saturday everyone!

Morning MTF

Well, I guzzled (lady like, me!) the rest of the sangria jug and this morning I feel ...... Magnificent!

No hangover. No muzzy fuzzy bonceness. Just bouncy tigger-like me!

Result!

Now, you gotta love Transport For London, int ya?!? Just checked (thankfully!) the tube linmes onm tfl.gov and the Jubilee Line is totally suspended today. Yes, that's the Jubilee line that takes you from Stratford in the East to Wembley Park in the West, where there's a rather large concert going on this eve. Rail replacement busses, no less. The joy!!

So, its into scary mary Liverpool Street (at least I can get a cawfee from one of the big boy cawfee chains!) and onto the juddery Metropolitan line to Wembers. At least it's purple!!

Mad? Me? Hell yes!!!

Greetings Earthlings.

I'm back from my intergalactic rollercoaster ride around the cosmos, and in fine fettle.

So, how you been?

Oh, by the way, it was a pleasure to watch one of my fellow aliens chip another notch on his bedpost this afternoon. Had you not realised? Roger ain't human.

He is dancer.

Which leads me nicely onto the fun and games we had last week.

Now, I may have mentioned once or twice that we were off to London to take in a couple of bands. So, we glided the starship into the big smoke a week last Thursday and promptly headed to Shepherds Bush where we were lucky enough to witness one of the most mindblowing rock sets that can ever have taken place.

Chickenfoot.

Who? I'm not trawling through the details again - look it up - suffice to say that I had to pinch myself several times during the course of the evening because I couldn't comprehend who I was actually seeing and listening to. Sammy, Joe, Chad and Mike, I salute you. Rock legends.

That was followed by a late beer 'n' burger (veggie - of course) at the HRC. Now, I hate to blow my own trumpet, in fact I'm still rather proud to even own such an instrument, but Mrs MfR and I look pretty OK for our age. But even I was slightly stunned when a bunch of Japanese tourists started taking pictures of us. Who did they think we were?

Answers on a postcard.

So, the next day. We awoke to the bizarre news that Jacko had fallen off his perch. Now, I like a conspiracy, you know that, and I am convinced that this is all a ruse to bail him out of a pile of debt. Right now he is sipping a G&T somewhere in the Arabian desert counting the dollars as they pour in. 'Hello, Billie Jean number 3?, $2m, thank you very much'.

Either that or someone popped him off.

Anyway.

We wandered across Hyde Park on Friday morning and caught the tube to Waterloo where we picked up the duck.

No, you got that one right, the duck.

Great stuff. A 2nd World War amphibious vehicle that takes you on a road tour of London before slipping into the Thames and giving you an aquatic adventure too. Well worth it. We then caught up with the rest of the planet and finally had a go on the Eye. I know, you all did it years ago, but we have been a little slow to catch up.

Then, the main event. Well sort of. We freshened up and then headed back into the park to see our old mates, The Killers.

It was a beautiful afternoon, and we joined 40000 of our closest friends for a beer or two in the sunshine. The support was fairly dire, and after the stomping rock of the night before, even Brandon and the boys, despite their best efforts, sounded a little 'distant' by comparison. Still, a fine way to spend a summers evening.

I hope all is well on planet blog. I have been dipping in now and then, but things have been pretty fast and furious lately, so I haven't caught all the news.

The really scary thing is that we are only 11 weeks from the big road trip, and we have done very little work on it.

Maybe that is a good thing though. Fly in, grab the rig, and hit the road. The rest will sort itself out.

Yeah, I like that.

Peace + love

MfR

Thank you all for your kind words and congratulations. You will be pleased to hear that I have had a shower and rested up for the rest of day. My old bones are aching but not bad enough from discouraging me from doing another one in September. I know I must be mad! ;-) Time for a quiet beer in the garden I think watching the sun go down.

Speaking as a chap who used to be quite well built in all the right areas, but have now managed to relocate the bulk to my gut....I may use you as a trigger to my own getting fit. Never do it wholeheartedly, so may as well not bother.
Maybe this time will be different...any tips?
Oh, and thanks!

Mad, mad, mad weekend.....Blur gig was............welll.........Blur were great, but when did it become necessary to spend the whole night lobbing half empty bottles of lager around the crowd?
They were all at it......ruined the night for me, I guess I'm to old for that kind of 'fun!'.

Then my mate got so drunk and lost that I spent the last hour trying to remotely get him back to Marylebone.

By the end, I was fed up and whilst Blur were amazing - on the whole - the bad outweighed the good.

Go and read the lyrics and then have a listen. It is perfect.

And, we got Chris' seal of approval too. We had a drink with him just after he had seen The Zep at the O2 a couple of years ago, and he was mightily impressed when Mrs MfR told him that we had them play us out after our nuptials. High fives were a plenty!

Hi Bridge,

Love your post #427 - firstline summed it up.
As for Top Gear - My partner Chris, Paul who works for us and I, have a very similar relationship.
We tend to go out together, and there is nothing that is out of bounds...or order.
The dynamic is very similar.....I am James - without the intelect!

The best prank we have is aimed at Chris.
He's as tight as a Duck's a&^e, so when we go out and he needs to get some cash from an ATM. We hold back until the option for how much money you want arrives.....when one of us will pop up and press the £200 option.
Drives him nuts, but you'd be amazed how inventive we can be, regards distracting him, even though he expects it.

Hi all,

I have just got home after watching the tennis live at wimbledon and am knackered. Quite a match, but drank too much as it was hot and thirsty work. The couple sitting next to us were quite lively and were asking all these philosophical questions such as: What is real love?? Do you know who your real love is?? I thought that they were alsmost as bonkers as some of the prices, but they were both professional psychologists and were asking these questions as a prelude to publishing some work or other. This got me to ask myself these questions seriously and to work out if I knew who my real love was and how faraway she was!!
Easy she was next to me and she epitomised real love!

Hi Dosey,

My beautiful wife of ten years in July is upstairs asleep......I'm not entirely sure that, that is what you're after by way of answer though.
Your questions seem very pointed and not entirely genuine...no offence, and please correct me if I'm wrong.

Sorry to be so direct, but I think you may find it's easier that way!

Hi Madi,
If you are in a relationship, is it the wrong one?/
Why are you still there then.
If you know who your real love is, then go and find him.
You do not appear mixed up, but you are not happy with the present setup, I suppose.
What are you going to do about it

Love,

Hi Madi,
Are you feeling OK???

I sometimes worry that you have a very unsatisfactory relationship at present and would like to "escape"!

Maybe you should think of your present relationhip as the closest that you can get to that ideal man. vVery few people are lucky to find their soulmates in their lifetime. I found mine, but I am not sure that i am her soulmate. We get on well though and love each other very much. The spark is still there from my side and she acknowledges it and is happy with the setup.

I suppose the question is: Do you love your present partner enough to continue?. I have seen earlier replies from you that your kids are at University and that you are probably having issues dealing with this. We have been through the same empty nest syndrome and my wife managed to get herself together. She said recently, that the love of her husband (me) gave her hope as she had known me for so long nd could rely on my support for the future.
iIdo not think that she had a mystery real love and I would have known if this was true as we have a very honest relationship now after she "strayed" many years ago. I think that it is this honesty which has kept us together. My best mate does not believe that his wife s honest and theyt have had to come to terms with this issue - better now.

he said that it is better to love somebody deeply and to believe in them - honesty will develop later.

i think that I should be a shrink as all my friends ask me for advice about their own relationships knowing that ours is as firm as we can get it and we respect each other.

If you want to reply please feel free as we are all non-judgemental and will help wherever we can.

have a peaceful and restful night and may tmorrow see you happy and contented.

Love

Dee

Goodnite to all. I must appear to be rather intense!!1 I am actually the complete opposite but love to help people with their problems. Have been doing this since I was a nipper - so my mom says!!

Lady GaGa - confirmed there is someone walking this planet madder than me. Strange. Different. Questionable.

Take That - WOW WOW WOW!!!!!

Yup. Was fantastic!

Beez - soz for lack of textage. Was using my phone to take pix and it seems to eat up the charge. By the time we got to the train I only had one "bar" left and I wanted to send someone an email on the way home, if you get my drift.

Hopefully get some pix on FB later.

Didn't get to meet up with Deb or Cath as we were all in different parts of the stadium, but did text Deb during her anthem, Shine, and was glad to hear back immediately that she was indeed a smiley happy bunny!

So, got to bed at 1.15 am. Awake at 6am. Just waiting for about 2 o'clock this arvo when my brain shuts down and my body tells me that it hates me with a vengeance ....

Morning all,

Sorry if I got a bit heavy last night. Too much tennis, beer and sitting next to two nutters.
I think that Bridget is very thankful that her man made it through a major operation relatively unscathed.
My initiation into severe illness happened about 10 years ago when my wife became seriously mentally ill and almost destroyed the family with her delusions and paranoia. The children and myself looked after her at home and she did well on meds, but stopped them and went loopy again. now relatively well and seems to understand what is wrong.
My abiding thought is that mental illness is such a silent killer of relationships that it often goes unnoticed by most, except the close family.
We live from day to day and I hate to see someone who is suffering from even mild mental illness trying to battle it out alone. Family are the cornerstone of your "survival"
All well now.

been reading Jean Paul Satre - very heavy and hard going, but very thouoght provoking. I sentance has stuck with me : "hell is friends". Probably true when you think about it philosophically!!!

Some random sayings that I remember:

If at first you don't succeed, give up!1
You can't make the same mistake again.

Suicide the sincerest form of self criticism.

Groucho Marx -
When asked if he would join a club replied, " I will not join any organisation that will have me as a member"!!

When meeting some eminent person whowas a bit of a pratt ;
" I never forget a face, but in your case, I am prepared to make an exception.

and finally:
There was a husband and wife pair of parliamentarians in the Canadian government who were really unpleasant people to everybody, including each other.
One day a MP stood up and "thanked God for allowing Mr P to marry Mrs P and therefore make 2 people unhappy rather that 4"

Have a good day. I have the day off to recuperate from the weekends excesses.

Dear Dee,

Thank you so much for the good words of advise. Yes I have Honesty issues. I'm also on medication which is helping. I'm sure I'll be able to sort myself out.

You sound so Happy. I believe in Soul Mates and that you know when you find your one. Treasure your precious relationship. A good relationship is what we all strive for and of course Love. You can work on a relationship but you can't just make love happen. It is a gift from God and God does answer prayers.

Thanks again,

Hi Madi,

Good to hear that you are fine this am!!

Did you dream of your mystery man or are you happy with what you have. Life can be starnge at times.

Keep taking your meds, they are the only portal to happiness that you have in this situation. My wife caused us untold grief but we hung in an she survived.

The children were a different kettle of fish, the survive. The husband bears the brunt is is very tempted to throw in the towel as he (me) feels trapped in a one way relationship.

Have a good day and think positively!!

Make your man feel special. As you say, he is all that stands between you and mental wellbeing!!

love.
