Clarkson is in trouble at moment over his remarks on Megan Markel.
He is an institution in UK, one of those love hate personalities.
There is even a group of fans that want him as Prime Minister.
I would vote for him, just for the entertainment value!
PS. I bet no one who has watched the Farm series understood a word old Gerald said!

Good morning, Two Bills,
You are there! The beauty of the area is stunning. Makes me want to plan a trip back to England. Perhaps Mr. Boomer and I will pop in and stay at your house for……..ohhhhh……maybe ‘bout a week or two.
I have a question that you can answer for me . Is that a dialect Gerald has, from a specific area, or is that just how he talks? Or a bit of both?
(I did not know about Clarkson’s rant on the situation with the royal family until just yesterday when I was telling my daughter Boomette about the show I liked so much. Well, I was then informed by her. She said she thought he apologized, at least. I have not looked that up yet. Maybe I won’t.)
A few days ago, I did read that the farmers are happy with the show because it documents what they go through, trying to make a profit. He talks about that at the very end and shows compassion — seems that, maybe, he is not a total ass…..er, arse.
Caleb is my favorite. You’re right. He is very smart and definitely knows his worth. (I keep worrying though about whether he is wearing sunscreen. He is so fair.) I also wonder if he is being chased by women there now. He is not only funny, but he knows how to do useful stuff……..Maybe a good woman will make sure he wears sunscreen.
We will be tuned in when the second season starts.
