Drinking and Driving ...a cautionary tale

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

This is a first for me as I usually don't preach to others. As you 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, a few days ago I was out for an evening with friends and had several beers followed by some rather nice red wine. Feeling jolly I still had the sense to know that I may be slightly over the limit.

That's when I did something that I had never done before - I took a taxi home. Sure enough, on the way home there was a police booze bus. But since it was a taxi, they waved it past and I arrived home safely without incident.

This was a real surprise as 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!


Merry Christmas!
