22. Can you give us a lift back to the car?

22a. In the days before Chris started (aeons ago) he was sitting among friends at the cottage they used to socialise in in Chapel Green Warwickshire downing a few ciders. When George Whenham and Ken Brown staggered down off the newly constructed M6 motorway embankment (before it was in use, yes aeons I said) They had a plea, ‘Can you take us back to our car?’ On questioning they had left it some 2 miles down the road towards Fillongley, and run all the way up to the woods up on Meridan Hill 3 miles in the opposite direction.
