Crash Bam Boom

Last week we played host to 5 bright young men from Sydney Grammar School.

They had traveled to Brisbane to take part in the combined schools music festival

Now the question arises - what do you do to give 5 smart young easily bored fellows as an experience to remember.  Put em in a van, race down the freeway, stop in the fast lane and wait for the cars behind to crash into you.

and that is exactly what we did.  In a way.



Well almost.  As we were driving home, we come over a small rise on the Western Freeway and observed that the cars in our lane (the right hand fast lane) were stopped.  The queue of stationary cars extended into the distance.  I mentioned to Marcus who was driving that stopping would be good.  So he slowed and stopped.  Reasonably quickly but not so fast as to cause the abs to kick in.  I glanced in the door mirror and thought to my self "This might not be as as good as it appears".  Then as if in slow motion a screech of tires and the crunch.
