Cars
"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

Cake
Like many young and foolish people, when young and foolish I made a habit of driving around whilst very stoned. It's a stupid idea and one I look back on with great shame, but it did result in a couple of funny stories.
After one late night session, I was both very tired and - having got the munchies - very hungry. So as I decided to go home and went out to the car, passengers in tow, our host kindly came out to the car and offered me a large slice of chocolate cake.
I wanted to drive home. I also wanted to eat the cake.
The result? I drove the entire journey across Bristol in first gear, so I'd have a hand free to manage cake. But of course, being in a hurry, I didn't let the gear thing slow me down.
I suspect the sound of the engine screaming must have woken the inhabitants of every house we passed.
