I told you I'd catch up with you tomorrow didn't I? Even better though, I've caught up with you today. I salute myself.



If you are a fan of brilliance, I strongly suggest you follow this new blog – Dream Racer. My cousin, Simon, is currently out in Argentina filming a...er...film. It's about Christophe Barriere Varju's attempt to complete the Dakar Rally - a 10,000km odyssey through the harshest terrain on earth. Now I know what you're thinking, 'Jon, surely your attempt to catch one hundred buses in one night is far harder'. Well, yes, you are probably right, but I think it's churlish to compare the two feats of endurance. I won't be doing it in the desert for a start. And between you and me, I doubt One Night, One Hundred Buses will ever be granted a cinematic release. There is a chance Dream Racer could be. Not that that should be your sole reason for following it, it's also to do with the fact that it's a challenge of epic proportions. The realisation of a dream. Simon will be blogging throughout the race and possibly beyond as the project goes from filming to post-production to Hollywood. So yes, follow the Dream Racer blog now. You can also visit Christophe's site here. And before you ask, no, I can't get you a discount on motorbikes.
