year the unexpected costly issues that occurred at his pub, including having to hire \u2018a whole team of chemically trained hazmat engineers\u2019 to deal with an accident in one of the outside toilets, only managing to sell five of the 40 <a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tag\/christmas\/\">Christmas<\/a> turkeys they\u2019d ordered, and <a

seasons of his Amazon Prime Video series.<\/p>\n<p>The former Top Gear star said in his column in The Times: \u2018It\u2019s galling to see how much effort is required to make so little money on the farm.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s worse at the pub.
