Warning- Christmas cheers! PLEASE READ

With Xmas upon us I would like to share a personal experience with my friends about drinking and driving. Don't do it! 
As you may know some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time on the way home after a "social session" out with friends. Well two days ago I was out for an evening with friends and had several beers followed by some excellent wine. 
Feeling jolly I still had the sense to know that I may be slightly over the limit. That's when I did something that I've never done before - I took a taxi home. 
Sure enough on the way home there was a police roadside check but since it was a taxi they waved it past. I arrived home safely without incident. 
This was a real surprise, as I had never driven a taxi before, I don't know where I got it from and now that it's in my garage I don't know what to do with it!

My mate once asked a taxi driver how much it'd be for a taxi back to the apartment after a very boozy session. He said "200 baht". My mate said "how much if I drive?". His response "400 baht". He drove round Koh Samui for the next half an hour. I'd like to add that I was back at the apartment when this happened!

My sister lives behind the police station. All she has to do is act drunk and she gets a free ride home.
