I decided to take the fun bus up the local mountain to check out the ski fields,I wasn't sure how far up we'd get in a rear wheel drive bus but the road was nice and clear.... until we reached the car park.
We journeyed on over hard packed snow in a small line of traffic and all was going well till the fella in front decided he'd had enough and stopped dead. That was me buggered lost all my momentum and all my traction, twas like a fat bastard on ice, 234 point turn later and I've cleared the road but got stuck in a great stuckiness.
I got out to assess the situation like an adult and to get away from the shrieking Bride who was convinced we were all going to die, when I noticed a tiny asian guy laughing at me, or my situation, not sure which.
I hadn't yet reached Mr angry stage so I just ignored him until he said "you want push?" I kindly accepted his offer even though he only weighed about 30kgs and mounted the bus once more. The Bride's still in (don't panic Mr Mainwering ) mode but she calmed a little when I explained that that tiny gentleman over there (oh fuck, he's gone) was going to push a 2 tonne bus backwards uphill in the snow for us.
I was just about to mouth the words ,where the fugg has he gone, when he re appeared from behind a small clump of grass...and so did his little mate and his little mate and on and on, they just kept coming. I lost count at thirteen but the bride reckoned there were nearly twenty, hardly any of them taller than the front bumper. an ocean of tiny hands covered every available space on the front of the bus and backwards uphill in the snow we went,sweet as, me the bride and the bloody great bus.
I thanked them all profusely and they all waved and smiled in a (haven't got a clue what your saying) kind of way and we sheepishly headed out of the car park and off down the mountain.
I have no idea where my little Asian buddies came from nor where they have gone too but between them and the humorous stranded Hungarians we gave a lift to on the way down (paying it forward) we had a great and exciting day out this weekend, thanks for asking![]()
Oh bugger
Its diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; its life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.
There is no way a man of your word twisting abilities could write that post and not realise the potential in it for word mischief and the fact that you left it rather than edited it out could only mean you were waiting for such a response.
In other words, I wrote that exact response because I knew you would be expecting it and I knew you would acknowledge that you were expecting it, how facking weirdly wonderful is that?
Have a beer back me old mate,I've fair spooked meself out now.
Oh bugger
Grrrrrrrrr
Nah it is a bit of an ugly sister compared to the other two innit, which is a shame cause it's just up the road from me but hey, what a wonderful playground right on my doorstep.
P.s. we've just bought an old 4x4 to prevent any such future embarrassment![]()
Oh bugger
