Stupid things your family have done

Specialun

My mum was once driving the car,a can of soup fell on the floor and while driving decided to pick it up.Ended up crashing her brand new car

Back in the drink driving days mid 90s my did came home from the local about mile away after a shot of pints...proceeded to park in our neighbours drive,walk in their door and sat down watching tv.....thankfully we have a good relationship with them

My bro had his first car and was wizzing around the country roads..a corsa...proceeded to come around a corner and plough into a herd f cows happy out crossing the road..killed one poor fella and rode off the car.he had to go gack cycling the 15mile trip to his gf place in rain to get the ride

Looked out the window to see a huge hole in the pier. Mam shakily opens the door a minute later, white as a sheet. She had meant to put her foot on the brake but put it on the accelerator instead. She then proceeded to give out to my sister and myself and tried to blame us for putting her under pressure even though we weren't in the car with her.

I'm confused. I realise you might be quite young but it was illegal to drink drive even in the prehistoric days of the mid 90s and most right thinking people even way back then disapproved of drink drivers never miind someone who was so pissed he didn't realise he was not in own house! I wouldn't go telling that story and expecting laughs.

My daddy spent years of his free time building a underground basement that nobody knew about. I mean what purpose could that have possibly served? Then he destroyed it when he heard some other man in Austria had already done what he had done. Stupid isn't the word for the oul man.

Heard a top comedian tell a very amusing account of a similar story and thought maybe the OP had nicked it.


Can imagine the pc brigade would be a whole lot of fun to bring to a comedian...

That's a great story, basically you're telling us that your family are a shower of dangerous, irresponsible spastics. I wonder how your post reads to someone whose life/family has been destroyed by gob****es such as your lot. This is why I hate this ****ing country.

You ruined it by dragging it out trying not to get an infraction.

Though very not proud and very against it in later years my Dad like most men at the time used to drink drive a lot.

One time he somehow managed to get all four wheels of the car off the ground with the car sitting on a barrell. He has no idea how it got on there, nor does he have any idea how it got off. He was in work the next morning (bus driver which probably makes it worse) and a few friends went and got it back for him.

He personally stopped when a Garda pulled him over, saw he was wearing his uniform, told him to park the car in a nearby car park and get a taxi home, if he tried to get back in the car he'd arrest him. Think he realised what it could have cost him and never did it again.

For what it's worth, also would like to point out that in 40+ years of driving he never had an accident and that's including when he was working.

I hate this country because I'm forever hearing of this type of asshattery going on. ****ing place is infested with retards and what's worse is that it's all seen as a big joke.

Telling me to relax, go out in the sun etc. That's exactly the kind of "ah sure it's grand" horse**** that has the country in the toilet.

Have a wonderful day, everyone! :-D

Ah I didn't mean to be patronising but don't be getting upset about what a few eejits do (no offence to the OP, my own lovely family have done many memorable fcuk ups).

As regards the drink driving, there's no secret that it was rife in years gone by. When we were children in the 90s going to club matches in the county, we stopped in every town, village, country pub on the way home. Then landed back to the local town and were there until closing and everyone drove home. Everybody did it, it was normal at the time. Thankfully it had been tackled and now it's now taboo to do so.

The above two parts of your post directly contradict each other if all four wheels were off the ground and he does not know how then he most likely had an accident.

It'd be worse if it was the other type of pier.
