On drinking and driving...............

Post by dorminWS »

I would like to share an experience with you, about drinking and driving. As you well know, some of us have been known to have had brushes with the authorities on our way home from the odd social session over the years.

A couple of nights ago, I was out for a few drinks with some friends at the Marriott Hotel and had a few too many beers and some rather nice red wine. Knowing full well I may have been slightly over the limit, I did something I've never done before: I took a bus home.

Sure enough I passed a police road block but as it was a bus, they waved it past. I arrived home safely without incident, which was a real surprise; as I have never driven a bus before and am not sure where I got it.

Good choice.

Had it been single malt you may have made the unfortunate choice to drive a bar maid home.

Nope. Even with a snootfull of single malt, I know better than that. SWMBO would have been back-seat driving with a baseball bat.
