For the first time in ages, I put my Sonic R tape in the car radio. There I was, minding my own business, belting out "Can You Feel the Sunshine?" and waiting for a gap in the traffic on the roundabout.
A gap appears, I start to go - and stall the dratted car. Just as I'm cursing and putting the handbrake on and putting it into neutral, I hear and feel a crunch from behind. Curses again...
However, Tails Doll clearly favours me. Not a mark on the bumper as far as I can see, not a mark on the other woman's either. So we both got off lightly, huzzah!
Wonder what I did to offend TD, though...
Craig, any suggestions?

You used a roundabout.
It if involves Tails Doll, then break out the holy waters!
You'd best burn the car, I fear your encounter was merely a warning for what is to come!
Stay away from us! If the TD finds us with you, we're screwed! So now like the Hinduists, we must consider you an untouchable and have to avoid you. ;_; I'm sorry.
Are you sure you are not a messenger of the Tails Doll?
How can you say that?
Of course the TD would do it's best to preserve its host's body. Now keep your distance o.o'

Not being condescending or anything, but right foot on brake, left foot on clutch, start the engine. If you're not in 1st or 2nd just rev it hard, slip the clutch, and get going. Don't bother screwing around with the handbrake and putting it in neutral ;p
In the event it was lucky I did put the handbrake on - otherwise I might have been shunted out into the roundabout I get very methodical if I stall at junctions - one thing that got drummed into me in lessons, many moons ago.
I blame all the rain for my stalling - my car does not love damp weather.
I'm still mystified as to what I did - maybe it's because he hasn't been invited to visit since May this year...

SCHLURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRPY
We are gathered here to day to say our last farewell to darkwinguk who failed to listen to the warnings of the Tails Doll. Now a moment of silence.
** moment of silence **
Does anyone have anything good to say?
** Forumers say their bits **
Now,
** I say some scriptures while darkwinguk's body is lowered **
This ceremony's over.
Driving is fun. I wish I could do it.
*speaks from beyond the grave*
Hey, that was a really great ceremony! Thanks, guys!
Now, let that be a lesson to the rest of you - always listen to and obey the Tails Doll. Or face the consequences...
Hey, has anyone heard from Craig in a while? Maybe I wasn't the first victim...

He's been a bit snowed under at work, but he's still got TD on his side for now.
I've got "Can You Feel The Sunshine" as an MP3. I've also got the game Sonic R for my PC, second hand (The strange old man/middle-aged woman at the curiosity shop/car boot sale warned me/didn't warn me) and it's never worked.
Perhaps lucky for me, eh?
Sam! I thought TD had eaten you! Welcome back!
Harley: you'll never know how lucky... *insert evil laughter here*

PC problems. I'll give you a call if I can ever actually get any privacy at home. 🙁
