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.

It's all about being creative
I had a biology teacher at my secondary school 6th form that drove a reliant robin. Whilst he was actually a fairly decent teacher his choice of car singled him out to be ridiculed. One day a group of 12 including myself decided that something needed to be done about the car. We hatched a plan to move it, but we didn't want to drive it. We wondered if we could bounce it down the road a bit and when we tried we found it to be incredibly light, testament to the production values.
We had a new plan. We picked the car up and carried it onto the school yard, at one point lifting it over some medium height railings. We then looked up at the biology lab knowing the teacher would gaze out of the window. To our delight we saw him walk past the window, give a casual glance outside and carried on walking. In less than a second he appeared back at the window, looking totally puzzled as to how his car had ended up in the yard when there was no obvious way it could have been driven there. My lip-reading was basic, but I could make out one or two, shall we say, biological swear words.
We were laughing so hard one of my friends had to go to the nurse as he banged his head on the ground. If you're out there Sir, I'm sorry.. a bit.
