I learnt a valuble lesson on the way home..
I was driving down motorway (about 95mph), I was really pissed off as had to stay at work later so I had my window right down to cool off.
Something kept catching my eye in the back..Then all of a sudden a plastic bag in the back flew to the other side of the car, then shot into the front and stuck to my face (@ 95mph)
Anyway, luckily I got it off before anything happened, but still...
Also on a side note, some guy in a cupra tried his luck, I had to hand him his ass back on a wooden spoon

i remember a bird hitting my wing screen when i was driving about 20 through town, cracked the windscreen but the combination of how much it made me jump and the look on the bird was hilarious.
Her name was rebecca IIRC

If you drove a Corsa everyone would have been telling you that you were a prick for driving over 70

Richie once smashed one of his alloys up because one of my shopping bags was flying around the back and he was trying to grab it

i've got a story....
because my car is currently being fucked over, i use my dads car. little did i know, on the way to uni a fly was buzzing round my face. Hit it and thought nothing of it.
the next day, my dad says do you know the story about my fishing trip last week, i went no, so he went "well, you need maggots to fish. i put a tub full of maggots in the boot and didn't put a lid on thinking there not going towhere. the next morning i opened the boot and they were all gone.
So now every fucking time the car warms up (i.e. when your driving) flys start to pop up its so fucking annoying and distracting.
rant over
