Title: Chriistmas wisdom
Post by: Ghdp on December 23, 2014, 06:40:22 pm

With Christmas close upon us, I would like to share a personal experience with you all about drinking and driving.

As you msy know, some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time, often on the way home after a "social session" with family or friends.
 
Well, two days ago, this happened to me. I was out for an evening with friends and had more than several beers followed by a couple of bottles of rather nice red wine and a few vodka shots. Although relaxed, I still had the common sense to know I was slightly over the limit.

That's when I did something I've never done before - I took a taxi home.
Sure enough on the way there was a police roadblock, but since it was a taxi they waved it past and I arrived home safely without incident.
 
This was a real surprise to me, because I had never driven a taxi before. I don't know where I got it, and now that it's in my garage I don't know what to do with it.

So, anyway, if you want to borrow it give me a call.

Both amusing  ;D  but seriously, I'd be scared to even have half a glass of wine with my Christmas lunch at my daughter's now - I'll stick to elderflower presse from now on - just bought the rose one to take with me as she'd never tasted it.
