Slowly raises guilty hand 😳
I used to lob mine out of the window because I didn’t want my car to smell like an ashtray.
Then one day I was driving through Glen Shiel on my way to Skye, having a rollie. Glen Shiel is absolutely stunning – all rocky outcrops and looming mountains on each side. There’s a real sense of history too – there was a bloody battle fought there and I always get a chill imagining having to slaughter the enemy on the steep, snow-covered slopes.
Anyhoo, on this particular day, the driver of the car in front threw a carrier bag of rubbish out of his window which disgorged crisp and sandwich packets, apple cores and all manner of crap.
I started flashing my lights at him and gave him a few toots of the horn, just to let him know it wasn’t on. Disgustedly, I sucked down the last of my tab and went to flick it out the window – then stopped and thought on….
Now I use the ashtray in the car, and it stinks.
