“I would like to share an experience with you all, 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 Pour House and had a few too many beers and a 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 roadblock, 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!
