A word of warning on drinking and driving

With the holidays upon us I would like to share a personal experience with my friends about drinking and driving.

As you may know 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!!!

For 'alf o' Creation she owns:
We 'ave bought 'er the same with the sword an' the flame,
An' we've salted it down with our bones.

Very good.
Seasonal British humour at its best

No, but seriously, folks, do remember that a pedestrian is hit by a car every eight minutes in the UK. And he's becoming afraid to leave the house by now.
I don't drink coffee to wake up. I wake up to drink coffee.
