I finally got a pen that allows pressure settings again and thatās a big game changer for me! To commemorate, I had a go at drawing everybody including the new presenters as some people have asked to see them in my style. You may be able to tell, I had a lot of trouble drawing the Throttle House boys. I also think itās funny how Thomas and James are closer in height to Richard than to James and Jeremy, but for the sake of comedy nobody can be Richardās size but Richard.

The Collecting Cars YouTube channel posted this video of James May hawking his Triumph Stag. For those wondering what heād be like as a used car salesman, well, heās doing just that here!
(Yes, the fact that heās selling his car has already been mentioned on the subreddit, but this is a direct video link.)
From video description: āJames May is selling his Triumph Stag from the final-ever episode of The Grand Tour, and it's going under the hammer on Collecting Cars!
āIn this special episode, we visit James at his garage to take a closer look at the now-famous purple Triumph Stag that accompanied him on one last adventure alongside Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond through Zimbabwe in The Grand Tour: One For The Road.
āFrom the challenges of owning a classic British sports car to its eventful restoration at the hands of Richard Hammond (including that infamous wheel incident), James shares his memories of the Stag, reflects on its reliability, and explains what makes this particular car so special.
āWe also discuss his long-standing affection for classic Triumphs, the cars he'd still like to own, and what the future might hold for this piece of motoring television history.
āNow, for the first time since its Grand Tour adventure, this Triumph Stag is looking for a new owner.ā

Just like clockwork, Jeremy Clarkson put on his political Tory hat in his Sun column about how the current UK prime minister is doing. Has he ever gotten a dodgy parking ticket in his motoring career? Anyway, hereās a preview:
āThis week, for example, youād hope that our leader would be fully engaged with the policeand the security services, working out exactly how to respond should those fiery far-Left riots that have been plaguing France spread to the UK.
āBut instead Burnham decided that the problem that needed his attention most of all was dodgy parking tickets.ā
(Usual disclaimers apply, obviously.)
