Road Trip
Gather round the fire and share stories of epic travels. Remember this is about the voyage, not what happened when you got there. Any of that shite and you're going in the fire.

I was hitchhiking from Padstow, Cornwall, back home to Midsomer Norton, near Bath.
My first lift took me to the M5 at Exeter! Result.
My second lift - a stereotypical white van man van.
"I'm going up Bath way." I said.
"Go for it" he said, "Just bang on the doors" he said, indicating the back of the van.
Bang I did. The doors opened, to great cheers!
"Hooray!" the occupants cried, "Welcome in!"
I was handed a joint, a tin mug of cider, and asked to tell my story.
It turns out the guy was going up to Birmingham, and picking up every single hitchhiker he saw. He called out the junctions as we reached them, and I was back home quicker than if I'd got the train.
