As the Christmas spirit will be flowing over the festivities I thought I would share this recent experience about drinking and driving.
As you well know, some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities on our way home from the odd social sessions over the years.
A couple of nights ago, I was out for a few drinks with some friends and had a few too many beers and some Irish whiskey.
Knowing full well I may have been slightly over the limit, I did something I've never done before - I took a bus home.
I arrived home safely and without incident, which was a real surprise, as I have never driven a bus before and am not sure where I got this one.
