  1. I was coming back from he garden centre, driving along a bridge, i wanted to change the CD and as i reached out and opened the glove compartment i dropped it, i saw the road was empty so i looked down to grab it, as i raised my head i saw a deer in the road so i quickly swerved to avoid it instead of crashing i broke through the barrier and the front of my pick up truck was left hanging over the edge, luckily people taking a walk in the forest near by saw me and called for help. :)

  3. So there I was, in my trusty pickup truck delivering a shipment of 2 boxes filled with unknown items from Doncaster to Barcelona. It was late at night and I'd been driving for hours. Exhausted and more bored than a dog in a cat fight, I thought to myself 'What could this unknown shipment be?'. After I had time to think, I decided that if i didn't want to die of boredom, I'd have to take a peek. I thought that no one would find out if I'd taken a quick inside or not. It was a straight stretch of road so, being the genius I am, I put a brick on the accelerator pedal and climbed through the back window. I was about to open the first box with my bottle opener keyring when the truck hit a bump, causing me to slip and cut open the packaging of both the boxes. Underneath the dim, brown packaging I could finally see what the "unknown items" were. In front of me stood 2 huge boxes, one filled with Coke, one filled with Mentos.

    The truck hit a second bump this time, the 2 boxes hit eachother, breaking the boxes wide open sending Coke and Mentos flying all over the place. I knew exactly what was about to happen next so I jumped off the back of the truck, breaking both my elbows and dislocating 6 of my 10 toes. The truck , still driving full speed down, the road exploded and was sent flying hundreds of feet into the air. Then a pack of unexploded mentos flew out and struck a nearby cat dead on the head, killing it instantly. The remains of the truck fell to the ground, landing perfectly purched along the edge of a bridge.

    There was nothing left for me to do but call the AA on my mobile. The whole experience was just shocking and I felt awful about the death of that poor innocent cat.

    Well, you know what they say: "Curiosity killed the cat"...

  4. It was on my way back from Dolphin after buying my half price purple kitchen that I realized that I needed to go to Sainsbury's to get lamb chops for my dinner..
    But I was on a busy motor way so had to grab my phone to ring my friend Gordon on the deli counter to save me some chops!!
    But..

    My pet chicken was in the backseat and had swallowed my phone!!! I had to use the heimlick maneuver to retrieve my phone but it feel onto the bonnet!!!!!!!! So simply I leant out of the front window and grabbed.. then when I finally had my concentration on the road there was a family of Geese in the middle of the road So I had to swerve, then my truck when driving up the back of Nige's bug did FOUR flips in the air landed on the ground and skidded through the barrier and left me hanging over the edge...

    Luckily Nige is a nice person and phoned the mergency servics :)
