Where was my movie camera when I needed it?

Please car! Stop moving!

I was walking downhill on the sidewalk in a town when I noticed ahead of me two men chatting. Behind them was a car parked partly on the sidewalk and part on the road, which is not unusual in these here parts. One of the men decided to lean on the back of the car, and at that moment the car began to roll forward.

The reaction of the man was what we might have expected. He scrambled to hold on to the car to stop it becoming a runaway, kind of like what our model in the picture is doing. The poor guy was frazzeled and freaked out of his mind, until he realized that there was a driver in the car, and she was quite determined to go on about her business. If he insisted on trying to hold her car back that was his business, but she had places to go, people to see, and things to do.

Off she went leaving him standing in the street looking really confused. He looked at his friend; his friend looked at him and together they exploded in laughter. A street full of people joined in, but I was the person best placed to have got the award winning Funniest Home Movie worth a bunch of money.

I should be laughing all the way to the bank.
Oh well!
