I remember her as a real hive of energy when she appeared on Top Gear. Far too young to die.

Am very sad to hear of the passing of Sabine Schmitz. She was quite a character.

I was sad to see the news about her too. I still remember the classic put-down of Clarkson regarding the van and ten minutes. She almost did it, too.

Yes, I think he was really glad to be declared excess weight for the second attempt.

Johnny Dumfries, racing driver.
I was a big fan of his ancestor's work with William Burges at Cardiff Castle (and Castle Coch too).

Did the same at Warwick Castle. As I was new to the company, I was elected as 'Lord of the Manor'.

Johnny Dumfries Obituary
He was born in Rothesay as John Crichton-Stuart, styled the Earl of Dumfries. His mother, Nicola (nee Weld-Forester), was the first wife of John Crichton-Stuart, the 6th Marquess, whose right to his title came by virtue of having been born five minutes before his twin brother. Educated at Ampleforth College in Yorkshire, the young Earl left before his O-levels – which he took at a London crammer – with the aim of pursuing his interest in motor sport. If there was no opposition from his family, neither was there financial support, and he earned his living as a painter and decorator and as a van driver for the Williams F1 team.
An admirable chap.

You’d be surprised how many places many miles from Fleetwood you can actually buy Fisherman’s Friends, I’ve seen them for sale in Thailand, Singapore and South Africa.
