Could anyone who went to Imola (or Sao Paulo) for the GPs tell me whether
GP3 was on show at either?
I'm gonna be at Silverstone next weekend and wanna know if it'll be there.

Will GP3 be shown at the British Grand Prix
A fan going to Silverstone asked whether GP3 had been displayed at Imola or Interlagos, as it had been at Melbourne. Joking replies about stealing the demo CD led to a long digression on British slang, new verbs and Monty Python.
Automated summary.
yeah, that's why I'm hoping to see it/play it this weekend.

I don't know the answer to your question, but if it's there make sure you
can slip around the back and have it away with the CD Rom !! ;)
Probably the only way any of us will ever get to see a demo of it <G>

tell ya what.
After the race when everyone is running to the car park to avoid the rush
that they're creating to get home and beat the traffic (themselves), I'll go
to the GP3 stand and nick the CD (and if it's not on CD, I'll thief the PC
and done with it :))

Well, I thought I was just making a humourous comment, but thanks for the
detailed expansion of my one-liner. Personally, I dislike "new verbs" and
refuse to "fax" anything. I also don't "telephone" people, but this might
have more to do with living in a German-speaking country now, where people
call each other rather than telephone.

"Fax" is an abbreviation of "facsimile" and has become an accepted "new
verb" in its own right. We do not say "I will facsimile this document to
you". We say either "I will fax this document to you" or "I will send you a
facsimile of this document".
"Network" is also a "new verb" when used in the context to which you refer.
However, "networking" existed long before computers were born.

The verb "to thieve", I've come across.

Alas, no. That disappeared (along with those of many, many others) when my
