Sometimes you see some funny things that are hard to relate in words.

I was sitting in my local pub yesterday reading the paper and noticed three older people arrive asking for a table. One was driving an electric buggy.

She managed to get it ten feet into the dining area, then proceeded to do a right turn amongst the chairs and tables.

At this point she must have hit the "go" button then all hell broke loose. The reception girl was sent flying over a chair whilst the buggy continued on demolishing tables, chairs and every other thing in it's path. By the time it ended, a third of the dining area was in shambles.

As much as I tried, I couldn't stop this thing until it did a full ark and hit a wall.

I shouldn't say this, but it was a comical scene for a while.

However there's a serious side to this. I'm selling the Prado and buying a buggy. Far more torque and totally unstoppable. No more sissy Toyota's and Nissan's for me!

Regards

Kim

Steady on Crazy Dog. What's this reference to grey nomads?

The thing I'm a bit short on at the moment is the dear old thing did'nt even buy a man a beer for his trouble.

LOL

Absolutely lethal in a shopping centre.

I live on the Central Coast NSW where Spike Milligan referred to it as the worlds greatest standing up grave yard.

Bloody things are everywhere.

LOL

it made me laugh anyway.
i must agree as well, there's an old regular in the local pub who has just got a new buggy and it goes like hell.
the 0-20kph is pretty good and there's always a big cheer when he hurtles out of the carpark after a few bevies.
