What is this I don't even ~
Okay, time for a Pass-Along Fic Thing! Why? 'Cos I just went through my WIPs and found something I'd titled "The Gallardo Scheme". Intrigued, I clicked on it, and found the paragraph below, which as far as I can tell has nothing to do with Gallardos at all. I really can't remember where I was going with this, but I think it has the potential to be the start of something at least halfway decent, which is why I'm now inviting YOU PEOPLE to continue the story. Just write something in a comment and away we go!

It was a lazy afternoon at the Top Gear office in White City. Series 15 was over and done with long ago, series 16 was still in the relatively calm pre-planning stage. There wasn't much for the three presenters to do except to sit around drinking Red Bull, coffee, or tea, leisurely tossing more or less vague ideas around. "Throwing socks", they called it, after Andy once remarked that the process was similar to the act of throwing horribly dirty, sweaty old socks at the walls to see if they'd stick. It was a fitting analogy, since it was usually the dodgiest, least attractive ideas that had the most staying power. The trick was to come up with a really stupid idea, then get one of the others to be the one who had to do it. That's how Clarkson had wound up crashing that Robin Reliant all over the place.

In other news, I'll be 25 tomorrow. Eeep!
