:lol: :lol: :lol:
When J Clarkson was recently pelted with a pie he vowed revenge on the 'Greenies'. Here's and idea we all thought of at work would annoy them. Get 10 of the worlds worst petrol consuming cars in the, say supercars etc, then park them in a beautiful field full of flowers and rabbits etc etc. Then simply depress the accelerator with a piece of wood and leave on full throttle for the show, cutting back to them every now and then. No speeding, totally safe, win win situation. Breath in them fumes you tree huggers.

lol, but people would just call that stupid. What you could do is go to one of those treehugger meets, and unleash a truckload of pie ingriedients, flooding them out, and renderring 100's of green's in custard pie! :lol:

Although, I prefer the alternative. The best, fastest, and pollutingest supercars all racing around the Transport2000 car park! (or bike park!)

How about a mass burning of speed cameras, in T2000's name? :lol: :lol: lololololol :lol: :lol:

Besides being petty, I don't this idea would really harm the environment much anyway. Modern cars (unlike busses) have very clean emissions, and while the environmentalists hate carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas, on a local scale it is quite good for the trees.

I recon they should have 4x4s pulling trees out of the ground. Get women to drive them just to really rub it in.

Or seeing how many bicycles you can jump in a 4x4.

Sounds like a plan.

I think we are getting a format together we can submit to the BBC.

Did he?

I thought he said "Tasty but a bit sweet".

We have no need to beat anyone with such childish acts anyway.

The fact is they are barking up the wrong tree when they attack cars which have a very small contribution to harming the enviroment.

He was certainly taking the pi55 out of the pie thrower on TG last night.

Perhaps it might be better to do an enviromental audit of the cars parked up at Greepeace's HQ, just to see how 'green' their transport is when paid for from their own pocket.

He got a lot of phone calls to Aunty Beeb when he hosted "Have I Got News For You!"

I saw the funny side of it though. But then I do. :rotfl: see the humour first.

Ist all tongue in cheek und ist the entertainment they pay him for. :wink: ist about as seriously intended as Grung und Phil are well'ard! :hehe:

Nah, if you REALLY want to pollute that field, stick a couple of Buses in there instead. Then go along one year later and marvel at all the tumour-ridden wabbits.
