Title: Drink Driving Warning
Post by: =CfC=BlueDog on January 19, 2015, 09:23:49 PM
With the holidays upon us I would like to share a personal experience with my family & friends about drinking and driving.

Some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time on the way home after a "social session" out with friends.

Well, three days ago I was out for an evening with friends and had several cocktails, followed by some rather nice red wine.  Feeling jolly I still had the sense to know that I may be over the limit. That's when I did something that I've never done before .. I took a cab home!

Sure enough on the way home there was a police road block, but since it was a cab they  waved it past. I arrived home safely without incident.   This was a real relief and surprise because I had never driven a cab before.

I don't even know where I got it and now that it's in my garage I don't know what to do with it!!

Perhaps a rolling cab of ill repute?   Bluey's Bitchin' Bordello?  For those who pine for the long gone teen years.  My Austin 7 was famed for the upside down footprints on the ceiling.  He said, wistfully.   :-*

QuoteMy Austin 7 was famed for the upside down footprints on the ceiling

So, is it fair to say that if we were to measure those footprints we would have a good idea of Matron's shoe size?

I'm just saying......................

If they were Matron's feet the roof would have been torn off.  8)

My father-in-law went on honeymoon (1952) in an Austin 7 Ruby 1936 model. He is six foot four with size 13 feet. They motored through the Alps in February, no heater and only manual wipers. Tyres so narrow they got stuck in the tram tracks in Zurich and had no choice but to drive on to the depot until they could be extracted.
