A car was pulled off to the side of the pass this morning. Not in a picnic area - but in a generally inconvenient place to stop. I knew right away he was in trouble.
Little did I know... As I got closer I could see two gentlemen peering into the boot (that's a 'trunk' for my American friends) and they did not look very happy.
I've mentioned on other occasions that the MacQuarie Pass is at least as good a roller coaster ride as Disneyland's Matterhorn.
So I edged by them, looking to see if I could ascertain what difficulty they were in. Just as I drew near, one man lifts up a flat of eggs from inside the boot (trunk). And it's dripping with sticky yucky goo. Took a turn too fast and the groceries rolled around in the boot (trunk), and the eggs got smooshed. I can only imagine the mess these two blokes (dudes) were looking at in the boot (trunk). Glad it wasn't me.

They say you have to smash eggs to make an omelette. He must have had something heavy in the "boot" to make it crash hard enough for him to have heard it go over, while driving. Either that or he had the eggs up on top of something else, and they slid off and crashed. Yucky, yucky.
Good fun posting, Mike.
