Can everyone please just reply to the most recent post. This thread makes no sense if you reply to something from earlier. I have deleted and will delete these erroneous posts if I spot them in time.

That's the same story that Roger alerted us to and Me Lee posted pictures - see here.

Ice cream
I had some last week. I've even made them myself once or twice. It's not a roast without Yorkshire pudding!

Yorkshire

Yorkshire Relish takes its name from the English county where it was first made in the 1830s.

It was a 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu. If you check out my Other Vehicles of Hazzard fanart thread, you'll see my comments about them using two different cars and how they were probably the same ones that played Petey Willis's race car in 'Welcome Back, Bo 'n' Luke'.

You can only directly upload very small images in the posts. The best thing to do is to use an image hosting site. It looks like Flickr lets you upload 1,000 images for free, but there are many other - just search for "free image hosting". The image host will then give you a link to post the image in the forum.

I've been here for well over a decade and I've never noticed that button! Out of the two choices, I'd go for "Insert image from URL", but I just paste the URL directly into the post. The forum should recognize it as an image and display it. Which image host are you using?

When I first joined HNet, it used different software, and up where you see the bold, italic, underline, link, quote etc. buttons in the reply window there used to be one for images. You clicked it, up popped a box where you pasted the image URL and you clicked OK or Insert or something like that. All it really did was put IMG tags around the URL. Back then, I could compose my longer posts in a text editor, including images with IMG tags, and paste the whole lot into the reply window. When the software changed, I found that you could paste the URLs directly, although it seems they have to start HTTPS rather than just HTTP nowadays.

I'm always here, Garrett, you should know that. To quote Carl the the janitor from 'The Breakfast Club', "I am the eyes and ears of this institution, my friends."

So, no one wanted to post a "Y" word in the last round! Come on guys - two rules to this game: go through the alphabet in order and put the word(s) you're playing in CAPITAL letters. We're now looking for a "B" word.
It was Mr. WINKLE.

I guess it would look like this:

You're right. Jeannie Wilson played Mary Kaye in 'Mary Kaye's Baby' and Laura Bardsley in 'Treasure of Hazzard'. It's easy to miss as her hair changes from blonde to brunette.

Also, as you go through the seasons, you'll see that Doris Dowling, who appears as Stacy Williams in 'Treasure of Hazzard', comes back as Jenny in 'Go West, Young Dukes'.

OCTOLINE

One of the fake company logos that appeared on race suits in the show. It was very similar to the Castrol Oil logo.
I've never heard of 'James at 16' - I checked it out on IMDb, but I don't think it was shown in the UK (the only countries in Europe with release dates are Germany and Italy). Kim and Kyle appeared two separate, consecutive episodes of 'CHiPs' the year before Kim was in Dukes.

In Europe this is the Opel (Vauxhall in the UK) Insignia Country Tourer. The sedans are reasonably popular here.

Hobie, did you forget about putting your words in capital letters?

Who's doing the half-time show now that y'all need a musical break in the middle of a race?

Los Angeles will be hosting the Olympics again in 2028. Although the Coliseum was built in 1923, it was an iconic venue for the previous games in 1932 and 1984, so maybe it's a bit of early publicity. However, it doesn't look that well suited to NASCAR racing.

It's a shame they closed the Riverside Raceway in California (as seen in footage in 'Undercover Dukes'). That closed in 1989 and held its last NASCAR race a year earlier. The site is now covered by housing and a shopping mall.

Following on from my last F1 post, Red Bull confirmed a tie-up with Ford to supply engines from 2026.

The F1 teams are currently launching their 2023 cars ahead of pre-season testing in Bahrain in a couple of weeks.

Hopefully that'll enable us to move on to happier news after a few recent controversies. All the drivers have expressed concern that the FIA (the sport's governing body) have prohibited "personal, religious and political statements" by drivers without written consent. It might also be the end of the pro-diversity 'We Race As One' campaign that F1 has promoted since 2020. The FIA president, Mohammed Ben Sulayem, is also stepping back from direct involvement in the sport after trying to control aerodynamic changes to cars himself, commenting on financial matters and the discovery of misogynistic comments on a historic website of his.

Roll on the return to racing!
