"Danger Mouse"

This is not the actual car, they wouldn't allow photos to be taken

You may have met our flatmate Damien, you may have only read about him in the blog or you may not have a clue who I'm talking about. It doesn't matter because we have a great story about Damien "Danger Mouse" Barret.

Damien recently had a Birthday (the same day as my uncle Jim, Happy birthday Jim by the way) and was given a few laps in a super car as a gift. The supercar was a Ferrari 355 and a very nice one at that.

Damien was doing so well that his instructor let him go a little faster than most people... a deision he would soon regret.

He is not used to driving a left hand drive car, misjudged the width of the Ferrari a little and ended up with one wheel on the grass. So Damien tried to correct himself by putting his foot down a little... a decision he would very soon regret.

long story short; the car spun 180 and ended up sliding along a concrete wall and coming to an abrupt halt completely totaled! that's right, the man who can hurt himself with nothing more than a dishwasher and a fork (another story) was allowed to drive a Ferrari 355 and wrote it off.

Well done Danger Mouse we are so proud! ;)
