Hi ya all

Probably some of you have seen this already, but I've just stumbled across this video and I think it's simply hilarious, I chuckle every time I watch it.

Here's the story: there's this little old granny who's waiting to cross the street and eventually she falls asleep only to be suddenly awakened by this moron in a big car who honks at her waking her up, and....... See more
