Popcorn Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 You are driving in a two seater car and it's throwing it down with rain. You pass a bus stop and notice three people. 1. An old friend who once saved your life. 2. The man/woman of your dreams 3. An elderly lady who desperatly needs to go to hospital. What do you do so "Ooops, word censored!"ody misses out? (bearing in mind you only have one spare seat to offer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 Come on, give it a shot Lesely. There's a perfectly easy answer if you think about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 I've thought about it and I've driven off ! Don't want to offend anyone you see!! When do we get the answer Gina ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freerange Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Come on, give it a shot Lesely. There's a perfectly easy answer if you think about it! But it depends if its warm rain or cold rain. If it were cold rain I don't think I'd make a very good impression anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 You let the friend who saved your life take the old lady to hospital in your car and then clear off with the man of your dreams! don't analyse me - please don't analyse me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Here's my take on it..... Heartless version: If the old friend is good at saving lives, then he can save the old lady. Me and the dream woman would be off in the car! Warm-glow version: I choose to take the old lady to hospital. The friend is just glad that he saved the life of a person who is now, in turn, possibly saving a life. The dream woman instantly falls in love with me because of my kindness to the old lady.

Cinnamon Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Drive home to large mansion Ditch the Porche (terribly impractical vehicle) Get in the Range Rover (Thats more like it!)

Popcorn Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 Like it Sarah! Lesley was spot on. You give the car to the life saver, who drops the lady in at the hospital while you get the bus with the man of your dreams (who gives you his coat to warm you up a bit from the cold rain!) anyone got anymore? I bet Jem has.....where is he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 Ok.... You'll probably know this one, but I'll post it anyway... A surgeon and son were involved in a car accident. The surgeon was killed outright and the son was taken to hospital. When he arrived in theatre, the surgeon said, 'Oh my God, It's my son' How can this be? (I hope I got that right. Please don't groan , I know it's easy!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Would the son have been the child of 2 surgeons? Thats all I can think of. Unless he was drunk & had began seeing double I love these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Yes, Sarah, I agree with you. Mother and Father are surgeons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clare* Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 I felt bad this morning I have a two seater a smart car As I was driving my son to school this morning we passed his friend, mum and little brother in the pushchair walking to school. They could just about stand up in the rain and wind we have today. All I could do was wave to them as I drove past. They were all soaked through. But what could I do I only have two seats. I did feel bad about not being able to offer a lift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 You could have walked yourself and then had solidarity with the other soaked Mums! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Agree with Sarah* and Kate - mother was a surgeon. Don't put any hard ones on Gina - I'm no good at thinking laterally. Accountants mostly do logic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 At least you can add up though Lesely....unlike me 2+2=5. See Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 I agree with the others, Mum's a surgeon too My daughter came home with one the other day, from school. It took me ages to get this, but then again I'm a bit slow on things like this- you'll all probably get it straightaway, but here goes... It's night, in London, and you're pushing your car along the road because the engine's not working. You then approach a hotel, but as you stop outside it the doorman leaps out at you and demands £200 immediately. Why, and where are you?
