Whether it be fireworks and banging (that’ll be the head the next day), or an early night with a nice quiet book and a cup of cocoa, have a wonderfully happy new year from all of us at T-shirt Studio. And what a year an amazing year it’s been. Well, ish. Riots, Nick Clegg and Kim Kardashian’s short-lived wedding have kept us despairing of the planet’s future. And we already have an idea of what will keep us entertained next. The 2012 Oympics, Jeremy Clarkson causing extreme outrage amongst people who never watch him on the telly, and more celeb marriages that last about as long as a piece of chewing gum. Hey ho! Well, here’s to the first t-shirt of 2012, the first of very many. Hic!

Guess Who!

There seems to be an awful lot of hoohah about the fact that Top Gear’s Stig wants to write his autobiography and tell of his time as TV most popular unidentified secret racing driver. The BBC want to take him to court, claiming that he signed a confidentiality agreement, although the Ben Collins has been revealed as being the Stig by the papers so does that even count now anyway?

Personally, I think they’re all taking this way too seriously, and are missing the real point. There is a perfect opportunity for an X Factor style “Hunt the Stig” show. How many applicants would you get for being Top Gear’s Stig? It would be amazing, and you would have TV dynamite if you were to add the magic ingredients of Jeremy Clarkson (Simon Cowell but a bit sharper), James May who could be Louis Walsh, kinda dim but nice and Rickard Hammond, aka the Hamster, ideal in the Cheryl Cole/ Dannii thingey role.

Isn’t this perfect? I can’t think why the BBC haven’t come up with it already. Or maybe they have, and all of this court stuff is merely a smokescreen. Anyway, here is today’s t-shirt: I am Stig. Perfect, I am getting mine right now!

No Tips Please!

It seems that there is a new copycat craze sweeping the country, that of Robin Reliant tipping. Taking their cue from a Top Gear episode in which Jeremy Clarkson drives a Reliant around the track, tipping it over on the corners, bored youths all over the country are abusing the cherished three wheelers, without the slightest consideration for the great history it entails.

Although this story has more than a little bit of  humour in it, the thought of Reliants nationwide suffering the same fate is far too dreadful to comprehend. The charming vehicle, beloved of Rodney and Del Boy and er…..so many others,  is far too special, far too precious, and to be serious for a nanosecond, a reminder of how cars became available to the masses at very reasonable prices.

Hence today’s t-shirt is in defence of the Robin Reliant, a great British Institution. Long may they stand upright!
