Freddie Woo tells us how he recently spent ages trying to open his front door with his Oyster Card before realising he actually needed things called "keys". Tell us of times you've done stupid things while on auto-pilot

This year, I finally got off my arse to go to Iceland to see the Northern Lights (which was the best thing I have ever, ever, ever done in the history of ever).
While there, with a bunch of mates, we also went exploring. One of the highlights was a huge set of river rapids, half of which had frozen solid.
My friend, who we shall call Bender, for her preference for boozin' rather than the same sexin', spoke thus:
"Oh, what's that thing we're going to see.... I've forgotten the word.... it's... falling water?"
"You mean a waterfall?"
"Yeah!"
(Oh, and the lights? OH MY GOD THE SKY IS ON FIRE! Best. Thing. Ever. Lucky doesn't cover it, managed to be there during a solar story and saw the FUCK out of the Aurora. And, yes, I did the Freddy Mercury. Because balls to all those beautiful, respectful photos of nature's greatest wonder. Someone's gotta show it who's boss!)

New years eve 11~12. Fantastic place.
Blue lagoon in winter is a must as well.

Certainly is! Amazing place. So windy I thought I was going to end up in the bloody thing, mind you.

I've been a few times and have been lucky enough to see the Northern Lights each time.
Shame you weren't wearing one of those daft 'Four Winds' hats. Excellent picture nonetheless.

That would be well undignified.

most amazing things I've ever seen are a total eclipse and the northern lights.
Not at the same time, obviously.
