This is a question Cars

"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

Hired a nice Vauxhall Vectra estate to drive to Scotland once....
...halfway up we stopped at a service station to relieve our bladders. Once done, we hopped back in the car and hit the motorway again, driving through some rough weather on our way to Gretna (to my wedding of all things).

About an hour later me sister starts shouting about there being something else in the car. She makes me stop in a service station and lo and behold I'm forced to look under the driver seat from the backseat.

I glance under it and go "Uh?" just as a sparrow looks back at me and goes "Uh?".

Cue 4 grown adults standing in almost horizontal torrential rain in a carpark somewhere outside Birmingham trying to coax a fucking sparrow out of the car for 1/2 a fucking hour. No idea if the poor bugger found his way home afterwards though, most probs swam it.
