Been round to Mum & Dad this evening.
On the way home I was stopped by a very large police road block.
Seems they are doing the drink driving thing early this year, apparently because Christmas parties have started already.
No complaints from me.
There must have been a dozen officers and the two that came up to my car were really very nice.
Older officer (F) had a huge sniff in the car, younger officer (M) asked the questions; "have you had any thing to drink tonight sir?" "Nothing alcoholic, 3 mugs of tea, half a dozen hobnobs".
A very pleasant "thank you for your time and wish you a safe journey" and it was all over in less time than it has taken you to read this.
They said that if they are very visible it will put people off "risking it". I hope so.
