“A game of achtung Schieße” 🤣🤣
I love how quiet he suddenly became while opening the package from Germany.
WW2 flashbacks happens to the best of us.
Aber natürlich ist Hans nass, er steht unter dem Wasserfall.
Just make sure the cowling is flooded okay !
It might have been Nurburgring related
Before using a new mug -
Me: Boiling water, 7 times through the dishwasher
James May: A quick puff of air
The grime adds flavor. It gives it that new mug taste.
Mugs are mostly glazed. There is a point to flush it with hot (>60°C) water, but else... i wouldnt recommend that.
I know, we are in special times, but the glazing helps a lot with things, you dont want to have in your body. Unless you scratch it with a spoon.
that's just a waste of power and water , get a grip humanity didn't survive thousands of years by being a germophobe
I never wash mine before using them. Only sometimes if it's a plastic one, but that's it. As for ceramic, nope, just straight up use it out the box.
Cleaning new items is usually to clean the chemicals that may be present after the manufacture process.
Justin Case.
Receives any form of alcohol in the mail:
James: I feel like that was sent here just for me.
Kid: Puts his heart and soul into writing a well-curated personal letter addressing James, and how much he adores James.
James: Shoves it into the bin.
Seems legit
You cant drink a letter
get your parent to buy the alcohol then write the letter and press it against it before wrapping
@@Red-S-267 or steal your parents beer.
morale of the story:
if you want James to pay attention, wave alcohol in front of him
This never would've happened if Jeremy didn't punch that producer
It wasn't that he punched a producer that was the issue....it was the fact that the producer was a snowflake and didn't punch him back like a man and then whined like a little bitch to the bosses...
Alternate time continuum....what if
@@dougc.3497 Punch him back and lose his career. You dumb dribbling fuckwit.
@@dougc.3497 Where exactly do you work that flat out assaulting your co-workers won't get you fired? What's this imaginary "macho" place where you have to be a "real man" and fight the company cash cow, or let him put his hands on you in the first place? Because if the answer isn't combat sports or a reality TV show, you're working somewhere odd indeed.
@@paddymuppy There's alway's one "badass" with idiotic logic like this. Typically some keyboard warrior who has hilariously bad takes on manhood.
James, please send those ancient cans of beer to Ashens, he'll open and drink them on video.
YES!
That would be the most ambitious crossover on TH-cam
YES!!!
I 100% back this
I vote for this. In fact if I had one vote for doing this or a vote in the next election ashens will get the vote.
It has taken me 34 years of my life, but I finally know something James May didn't: coffee beans come from cherries (which, by the way, are really, really sweet).
Coffee beans come from the coffee plant
@@remsalt3882 which fruit in to cherries that have the bean inside...
"I"ll Take the dog"
*Loud CRASH*
me: *o*
Dog puzzle
LOL
I broke into tears laughing. Sorry, but this dog iswas aesthetically challenged in any way and angle.
Yeah I love the editor! She made a couple of great episodes in front of the camera with beans.
I was like oooh lucy
This is the perfect “drivel” for quarantine. Cheers!
Alan Lane epic!!
... I read that as "Drive-ul" in my head. I am tired.
I would really love to have that dog. I already have a milk spewing cow and a bread basket chicken, so the aesthetically challenged vinegar dog seems like a perfect addition to the stable.
How am I supposed to send James weed now, his security guys would end up smoking it.
Lmao
What if I send him a pound of homemade flour.
11:55 in a game called Achtung scheisse🤣
Actually it is "Ach du Scheiße!"
Literally lol'd
Acht und Scheiße.
Schrott Wichteln
@@m.m.2132 👍
Mr. May. As British ex pat living in south Africa, i have started a collection of European beers to display to my new friends here. I would love to give any of those beers (especially the Heineken) a great home to become talking points at my soon to be held beer appreciation evenings! Would also love to invite you or one of your tribe to attend if you are near joburg in the future. Love your work immensely. Thank you.
It would seem that the answers to the giveaways have to be made through th Drivetribe app, you should ask there. Good luck
I hope you are not missing out on all our local beer as well! Not sure about Joburg, but we've got an incredible amount of small breweries here in the western cape making outstanding beer.
I miss Windhoek, I know it's not South African and it's only 4% but still...
Ashens would actually drink it. Would you film a Vlog of you and your buddies drinking it for us?
I love how James enthusiastically hangs on to things, you get a real sense of gratitude that he got the items. Strangely addictive watching!
I’m a university student who has been sent home, as entertainment I’ve been experimenting with new coffee and ways to make it at home. I’d greatly appreciate the coffee and grinder to reach a new level of caffeinated.
I'd like to win the egg costume, I've got a party coming up and my girlfriend was going to dress up as a chicken so I could use it to do a couples costume. Cheers for the opportunity :)
The jokes about the egg coming before the chicken pretty much write themselves.
@James Boyle
But ... wouldn't that mean she's your mother ....?
It sounds like a great way to get laid.
@@insane_troll ur a genius
Of course you would show up first...
James may could survive whole corvid 19 ordeal just with the stuff he got from his mail
There's a TH-camr called Ashens who would drink that beer. Maybe he should get it just so we can see it being drunk. Maybe even during a collab between channels?
That's a great idea, would love to see that!
Ashens would down that beer, no question
Ashens and James may collab would be immense.
I work we the guy who sent that beer in 😂 real man
Yes. Please.
Can't get enough of The Grand Tour and Top Gear! You, Jeremy, and Richard have broken a lot of entertainment barriers over the years. Hope you get to continue entertaining us and doing cool things. Best Wishes from Indiana.
oh the glee on his face as he says 'see you next time' and dives into the bottle of beer. i don't think i was this happy opening presents on boxing day even as a child!
For those who might be curious about the jellies (Jams), they're made from Muskadine and Scuppernog grapes, which are the only 2 grapes native to the United States. Their sugar content is incredibly high, and lends itself to very sweet wines. Duplin (based out of Rose Hill, North Carolina) makes some phenomenal wines from these grapes. Myrtle Beach, South Carolina has a tasting/sales location as well. Well worth the trip!
James: "I didn't know Sweden made Gin", Hammond: "Yes, yes I did, now give it to me!"
i can actually heat Hammond's voice
@@rhinobird - what? like on a stove?
stupid tyops messin' with my punchlines
@@rhinobird me2. I had just watched the episode where they asked him his favorite drink and he went off on gin.
I feel bad for the guy that sent the vintage beer... Imagine specifically sending something for James May and he just says "If you would like some ornamental lager"
He's brutal in this series.
James is literally the most real person ever. He’ll say anything and not care (not in a bad way) and he makes me laugh every time I watch him, Jezza and hamster
"James, I heard in one of your videos that you like gin."
"This is a good start" I love how excited he is hahahaha
I love drink as well. please share.
An enjoyable episode of mail time, brought to you by BoozeTribe.
I’m desperate for a handcrafted drink because: I just found out I’ve lost my job, and as if things couldn’t get any worse I have no beer left
I have a spare case of corona you can have for free.
Sorry to hear that my friend.
Crouching Tiger dang
@@crouchingtiger9108 I'll buy my own limes, thanks.
Yes we can send you some beer
I would love the aesthetically challenged little vinegar dog. Not for myself, but for my very dear, and very eccentric friend Emily. She would adore it.
'Here. Beer. Here.' is a lovely little Withnail & I reference that seems to have passed people by. I will happily take some beer off James' hands, if, in return, he will let me send him a more civilised and elegant little pocketknife
My missus would love the dog as she is really into her aesthetically challenged tat and this would make an excellent birthday gift
It doesn't sound like it's still available. 14:47
@@benjaminlumsden That's what I came on to mention. Sounds like Lucy 'dropped' the dog.
@@DonalvonGriffyn That makes it cheaper to post, and It comes with a tube of superglue.
Hello James.
I'm an engineering student, currently finishing his Master's in mechanical engineering. Where I'm studying Universidade de Coimbra there is this very vivid and old tradition of once a year, during one day, all students come together and celebrate their final year of studies in a massive parade with theme cars each representing a different course. There is free and large amounts of booze, hard liquor, beers and other substances for the brave ones (don't quote me on that), this parade is known as "Queima das Fitas" and getting blackout drunk is the norm. Needless to say, any student from other years are invited to join the "seniors" in this parade. Well, it so happens that I've paraded too many times and any form, smell or scent of alcohol brings up my gag reflex and memories I'd like to forget. Therefore I will not, in any circumstance drink those old Heineken beers. Cheers.
I love how you decide some gifts are meant for you.
Mighty Mouse that’s kind of the point of fan mail
I wish someone sent me alcohol like that.
I work with that guy who sent that beer in.. real man 💯
I got a case of corona, want to share?
@@LoggyWD Haha! At any other time, that would sound Good. Now tho.....not so much 🤢
Manny Moreno that’s for sure.
I’d like to have some European beer as a Brit living in Australia. Miss the differences in beer there.
My grandfather and I would love the Coffee as he has a good taste for Coffee in his old age. Given the recent virus, we are unable to reach any coffee from the store due to our local being cleared out! Help us James, so my Grandfather and I can make a coffee brew and play chess on a Sunday whilst in isolation!
13:28 "That's almost worth framing, that!" 😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hi James, love the manual Coffe grinder with special beans. Sound absolutely amazing and will make my mornings amazing before boring work 😊
"I could frame this." *throws it into the trash.*
"whilst I do myself a mischief with that one" ill spend the rest of my life thinking of ways of incorporating that into conversation.
Dear James, I'm Italian and I've been in lock down with my girlfriend here in Milan for almost a month, and counting, now. I desperately need that beer.
that flower art really popped the whole time
Alcohol is not cheap here in Sweden with all the taxes, its just that norway is the most expensive country in the world thats why they come here to buy everything if they live close (and our currency has gone down the shitter)
How much does a pint of beer roughly cost mate?
It's funny, because a lot of Norwegians and Swedes go to Denmark to get drunk, and Danes go south of the border to get cheap booze from Germany. The cycle simply goes on.
Yep. People go on the cruise between Finland and Sweden, buy the alcohol when the cruise is in the "tax free" zone, and then go back.
You're all welcome to come to South Africa. Very cheap booze.
@@sonicsabbath And swedes do the same between denmark and Sweden or sometimes even drive to germany through denmark for booze
Perfect timing, just watched ep.7 of drivetribe mail time
Quiet amazing how much knowledge James have got about germany!
Such an educated man!
really looking forward to the new cooking show james :D!
I would really appreciate the Nepalese coffee beans. As an engineering student in the all-nighter studies caffeine is what flows in my veins and makes my brain tick. The black liquid gold of the heights of Nepal would be a physical and spiritual enlightenment for my pour soul.
Hope you get the coffee as this is a great effort at trying for it and yes engineers have to study hard, but can then climb to great heights; don't be confined in your future career objective - look who runs Coca Cola.
Rgds, Phil, of fledgling Kaphi Kapa coffee. Contact us if you don't get the coffee ! PS the coffee is much better than the donated grinder.
@@philhealey449 thank you very much for the good words! It's hard, sometimes I really fed up with it, but in the end I love what I'm doing and I grateful to have the opportunity to learn
Great literary effort David so hope you get our Kaphi Kapa coffee which is 100x better than the grinder!
This is brilliant, I loved it when the dog smashed!
😂
That coffee would be an amazing addition at my workplace, my colleagues and I are avid fans of freshly ground coffee and drink it all the time so it would be very useful
I would like the fried egg costume thing. Excellent to break up the time while being in self isolation. Thanks for the great video. 👍👍
Oh yes, people in the US are watching this drivel. And we love it.
Absolutely!! 😄🙌🏻 🇺🇸
Lucy is underrated. Please have her in a grand tour episode
"that will keep you going for several hours!" hahah
Year 2020 in the age of entertaiment , I found James opening packages oddely intresting , I would be able to watch hours of this without getting bored.
I would love the hidious dog, because with that i can ruin the look of my parents living room. Love you James
I think Lucy just broke it at 14:49
With myself being aesthetically challenged, I would really appreciate that fantastic little dog! I would use it for gravy because that's be funny to watch come out of its nose!
Ooooh yes!
Didn't you hear the breaking sound after Lucy accepted the dog ? Either she just added a funny sound effect or she really trashed the little dog.
I wanted to know if anyone got the dog. I was mad that they put in a shattering sound and no more context >:(
So our question is : was the dog really shattered to pieces ? It wouldn't amaze me from Lucy who never hides and always clearly expresses her distaste for some ( actually, many) things.
I would love the coffee and coffee grinder!!!! You are very entertaining and funny Mr. May!
I’m so glad James May came to youtube, what a god 🤩
In the U.S. "jelly" is clarified, whereas jam has seeds and other solids.
William J that’s correct, in Britain it can be called fruit conserve if it is smooth rather than with the seeds and bits in it is called jam.
@@alfiepocock6833 bit late to the party but it's just smooth jam😂 or seedless
@@bad4life2013 I was a bit late? My comment was 6 months ago mate 😂
JAM IS JAM
I actually collect old drinks so I would love the Heineken! I have a Virgin Cola (yes from Mr Branson himself) which is from the year I was born. Cheers!
Add for this video was a US “Beef. It’s what’s for dinner” video where all it is is a overhead shot of a steak sizzling in a cast iron skillet for 3 minutes & 8 seconds. Truly the best advertisement I think I’ve ever seen my mouth started watering within 30 seconds of it starting.
He was so chuffed with the pie dish lol
I would love the beer! Im from Canada and It's my 19th birthday in June, I think that would make a great birthday gift, would love to share with my family and friends, cheers🤘🏼
""I'll take the dog ... "" hah!
Everything about that engineering letter was glorious. And I would love to try the coffee. Cheers.
This is - in some ways - a depiction of heaven. Sitting in a chair, opening parcel after parcel after parcel. I could do that happily for a long, long time.
It's all fun and games until someone sends you a (literal) virus.
The beer from Belgium in the middle is Chimay! It is delicious, 11% alc :)
Agreed, it is marvellous beer!
I've only ever drank Budweiser and have been thinking I wanted to get into drinking craft beer too gain a more refined palette, thanks for the awesome videos
Reuben from Alaska
thumbs up . enjoy the journey
I'd love those flavourly farm yard ales. There is a very good reason. I'm a bloke from England. I love beer more than anything and nothing can match it. I am always on the look out for some smaller brands of beer to enjoy as a nice change from large companies. Plus there is nothing better that sharing them with my dad and beer is incredible.
Damn, really would love that coffee! I love coffee and it helps me cope with the isolation during this difficult time of quarantine. I used to get coffee from the world over, as my daughter in law was a dignitary flight attendant for the US Air Force. She knew I loved it, and sent me coffee from all over.
Sadly, the marriage did not last. I am not a social media person, but please help me enjoy some nostalgic memories! Thank you James May.
"We'll make some toast, later on..." T-shirt
14:50 mark. I do not believe the aesthetically challenged dog survived the episode.
I also just came to search if anyone else heard the sound of breaking china shortly after the pooch was removed 🐶
RIP asthetically challenged dog
2020-2020
Shame about the dog
I somewhat suspect it was just a deliciously timed sound effect - in any event, it absolutely cracked me up.
I concur
"It's a bucolic... sitting on an ancient agricultural implement..." lol!
Hi James, I would love to have the coffee grinder! It's one of my favorite beverages. And more than that I would love to receive a gift from my favorite person of the three of you! Thanks a lot for these fun little videos.
ashens would love that expired lager, he would definitely open it and drink it with some random uk based youtuber
Let's be honest, Ashens would love to have James May with him :D
Unreal👍
It surprises me that James May would think Americans wouldn't watch this, pretty much everyone I've ever showed Top Gear, The Grand Tour, DriveTribe, FoodTribe to, has all loved it for the comedic value and banter that the trio give to who ever watches their programs.
Way to go James!
You are the man!
In the throes of COVID-19, he doesn't even wash the mug before bunging his tea in it. Just flood the cowling, plenty of it!
He cleaned it 2:51
Not everyone is paranoid.
I'll tell you a secret: viruses can't live outside the human body more than few hours. With that said, there won't be any COVID-19 viruses on mug cuz it takes at least few days to be delivered. So nothing to worry here
Think this was filmed a while ago. In the mail time video on DriveTribe he said "it's February"
@@issataysissemali3203 actually it's been shown that SARS and mers, which are types of coronavirus can live outside the body for uotp 9 days in normal temps and even longer with extreme cold
I'd love the handcrafted beer because quarantine in Italy without booze is just a pain in the arse. Cheers
I would keep a bottle or two from the Doppio Passo Primitivo from this year, because i think, it would be very rare and very worthy. And its also a very tasty wine. You Italians really know, how to do that. I am always struggling with the french wines, i dont seem to be sophisticated enough for them...
Vengys H thank you for your kind words! As far as I’m concerned, I’m not the biggest fan of wine in general. I’d rather have beer or whisky (my favorite alcoholic beverage). Speaking about wine, rosè is my choice
I would actually love to try that hand ground coffee using the grinder. My whole family are huge coffee drinkers and we'd love to try this "most amazing coffee"!! Always up for trying new things, its the little things in life!
As a Finnish person, we consume the most coffee in the world by far. I'd love the grinder and the bags of coffee as I'm a real enthusiast when it comes to that. I drink normal pan coffee at the rate of one pan per day. That would definitely brighten the days for me and my partner and I'd absolutely love the better coffee as a treat!
Are you kidding me? I'm from the U.S., and you three are very much Loved here! Keep up the Great Work!
I am a software engineer who considers himself a coffee connoisseur. I have been trying to create the perfect espresso for the last ten years and the fantastic description of the Nepalese coffee makes me think this might help me in my quest. Thanks James, for entertaining me for so many years.
From the U.S. love your show
I would love that coffee grinder as my local supermarket only had coffee beans left on the shelves... and it's really laborious smashing each bean with the end of a rolling pin!
I'm desperate for a handcrafted drink because I'm quarantined and my wife and I just had our first baby. Nothing helps me fall asleep better than a good craft beer and God knows I need it because I'm sleep deprived.
Brian Beeson I hear you brother. Mine is 7 weeks old and refuses to sleep laying in her crib. I can’t count the hours I’ve wished for sleep.
I think you need to comment on the website for it to count
Hope Jezza sends in some free samples from his farm shop :)
Didnt he have to close it a few weeks ago?
@@bigmull no, he just ran out of stock then
I absolutely love Coffee and try different kinds every chance I get. I would love to have the coffee beans and grinder. Cheers
Love that coffee grinder! I've been looking for one for ages after seeing an antique one a few years back as an ornament in a friends house! The sound of Nepalese Himalayan coffee sounds incredible. And yes, I am a coffee snob 😂
not sure if the coffee is still available, surely would love to try them. from malaysia over here :)
Hi James and friends, I'm desperate for the hand crafted ale because I have been on antibiotics after I sat on a pair of compasses. My Sprocker was keeping me company in our garage and went into a fit of what I believe the kids call Zoomies, I sat down to get out of his path and my compasses went an inch into my left arse cheek. I have 2 days left on the tablets and need a fucking drink.
Dont drink while youre on antibiotics, its bad, stupid and it will probaly taste horrible
I had John Cleese’s voice in my head reading your comment. Laughed my bollocks off😬
My new favorite show 😂
I would love the coffee stuff before lockdown please, would be incredible.
Did she shatter the dog? 😂
Couldn’t tell if she did or it was a gag but it feels like a gag😂
That was just a sound effect, he has used it before. :P
Sadly the sfx indicates yes.
14:50
So i guess getting that dog is out of question now 😅
Love those oldie coffee grinders, reminds me of my grandmas house
I’d love the coffee grinder! Huge fan of coffee and mechanical engineering. Playing around with coffee grind settings will give me something to do during quarantine.
I love coffee and so does my family, the coffee and grinder would go to a good home! Also - Nescafe instant is NOT coffee!
i agree 300% on the nescafe instant coffee not being coffee 🙄🤬

Haha I love the fried egg costume, thats hilarious, now you just need the bacon 🥓
watching here in the US. Long time fan since the days of top gear. I have also watched some of your other specials
