I still think Jeremy may have posted on TFF last year under the name @zaharkyro ,but we will never know, it says "Age 23 on his profile but that could be just made up.

Excellent Clarkson article.He is still discovering his farm after owning it for a while,quite amazing really.Do members know if JC has an active farm manager in his employ ?.He should recruit one to get to grips with the issues that he identifies in the articles he has so far published.

I'd guess he's pretty much all over that - he just knows how to pick the bits out of any situation to make an entertaining story, be it cars or farms or whatever.
He's definitely "Not as green as he is grass looking," as we say round here.

Exactly. He can certainly put himself across in a way that people will associate with, as opposed to a grumbling farmer. It sounds like he'd as clueless as the reader, especially about the poaching.....yet it's clear that he knows exactly what he's on about, but is putting it across in a way that will create the same reaction within the reader as he might have had without becoming accustomed to it. Far more empathy attracted when readers can see it as they would if they saw it with their own eyes in their own fields. Means no apparent bias or judgement is shown i.e. "well he would say that..." and much more likely for them to understand rather than dismiss it.

It would be lovely if there was a whole thread of them each week on here but I think that might land someone in hot water.....

Looking down his columns it's interesting that The Times have now titled it "FARMING" rather than just "JEREMY CLARKSON".
Only whilst he is not getting cars to test. As soon as we return to some sort of normality , his articles will become "Driving" again.
Enjoy whilst it lasts
