Before we all go out on Friday night for a few drinks, I would like to share a personal experience with you about drinking and driving. As you well know, some of us have been lucky not to have had brushes with the authorities on our way home from the various 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 then topped it off with a scotch. Not a good idea. Knowing full well I was at least slightly over the limit, I did something I've never done before - I took a taxi home. Sure enough I passed a police road block but because it was a taxi, they waved it past. I arrived home safely without incident, which was a real surprise... I have never driven a taxi before and f**k knows where I got it.
