I think I know who you mean
This guy looked trustworthy and had responded to a call from a neighbour early Sunday am to remove one of my ex Poplars from across the road.
I watched the F1
Found it intermittently boring, annoying and slightly interesting. Overlong for sure.
I can see why the commentators on the Beeb for MotoGp keep their jobs now.
The F1 guy is worse. Had to turn the sound down. All the excitement of Toby Moody's voice, Eurosport but with nothing else

I'm ChrisB.
First one I have seen for a couple of years. First one I tried to watch for some years. I whizzed through quite large chunks
I assume F1 has changed a lot. The tyres ? my tree surgeon friend indicated
Certainly not the usual high speed procession I expected
The cars or drivers often seemed out of control, maybe the wet track or are there drivers in there that ought not to be ? Senna's son, the Japanese guy and some others
Reminded me of UK stock car racing with all the crashes and part lottery. That's a lot more cars than I remember
Vettell was so lucky to stay in the race. Hamilton so unlucky to be taken out by what I assume is an idiot
The commentator was awful
And the season finished behind a safety car...
I whinged a bit about some of the MotoGp races this year but F1, for me, lags behind that. Perhaps the bikes add another dimension with the 2 wheels.
The most exciting motor sport of the year came from Moto2 and Moto3.
Just could not get excited by F1.
I used to watch it for many years.

I know these things are like nothing I know !
Got a clue when Richard Hammond kept stalling the F1 car he tried
Seemed to be a lot more accidents and off track excursions than I remember
Not having seen any F1 for a long time this could be an odd one
Perhaps I have to overcome the memory of too many boring races over the many years.
If MotoGp didn't have Moto2 and Moto3 as supports I could skip that too.
Next year may improve - or not
Puzzles me that MotoGp keeps going on about lack of money and there are so many F1 teams which must cost way more to run

Serenity on ITV1 HD, seen it before but had forgotten how good it was (avoid having a pilot who was the pirate off 'dodgeball' though)
