Driving down a country road in a work van i turned a blind corner and there was a whole herd of cow blocking the road, there was a fence nex to them that was flat on the floor so they all got out and started eating the fresh verge grass.
It's quite scary when they are next to your vehicle, you don't really think about how big a cow is until your next to one.

Try finding highland cows when you’re on a motorbike! It's quite scary when they are next to your vehicle, you don't really think about how big a cow is until your next to one.
An August day many years ago driving along the main motorway on the Cote d'Azur in a Transit full of footy fans a UK registered MGF comes cruising past us with the top down, passenger seat fully reclined with female passenger sunbathing nude.
Always wondered what happened when they got to the payage as no obvious, immediate to hand, means for said passenger to "cover her modesty" .

I was refuelling the other day at my local Shell, car pulls up at the pumps behind and the girl starts faffing about with something in the car.
Moments later she places a live pet rabbit on the dashboard, gets out and starts fuelling.
Later as I leave, she follows me off the forecourt, still with bunny just chilling in the corner of the windscreen.

Got lost in the some random village near Liverpool late at night so turned in to the nearest side street to set up my sat nav to get me home...
After a few seconds of messing about my girlfriend just starting laughing hysterically, pointing to the bungalow directly in front of us (my headlights pouring the bungalow with light) a middle aged couple going at it literally against the window, I'm not sure if they either didn't notice the LED's in their face or just didn't care...

Many , many years ago I was with my brother-in-law in he's trusty Transit , trundling onto the A127 from the Upminster turn off , there was a bit of a electrical storm happening , thunder and lighting going off , no rain though . A blinding flash on my side of the grass reservation followed by a very loud pop produced a fizzing , sparking sphere of ball lightning . It ran parallel to the van for a considerable distance , burning the grass black as it rolled merrily along shooting volts everywhere . We both agreed that It was about the size of a large beach ball . It was a truly bizzare experience to behold , like a real Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind ! Eventually with a loud crack it imploaded ? and disappeared to whatever strange dimension it came from . Never seen lightning like that since .
A female mannequin doll, minus one arm, callously thrown into the central reservation on the M25 near south Mimms. I often wonder what happened to her..
And way back when the M25 was still being built, a shed in a field not far away from the road, where a presumably aggravated farmer had written "thieves, liars, cheats!" in white paint on the roof, at the loss of some of his land. Surely somebody else must remember this?

Ball lightning - would have loved to have seen that, Greg. One of those unexplained things that are so rare they are unresearchable. Went to pick up a mate once in Rayliegh and was parked up in a little dark car park behind a row of shops. One of them was a Chinese takeaway, they had the back door open so I could see into the busy kitchen, it was chucking out time and they were rushed off their feet.
After a while a bloke comes out of the kitchen and climbs into one of them big metal bins they have behind commercial propertys. He ducked below the rim and scavenged about for a while chucking up various bits of rubbish and filth.
Then he climbs out holding a pile of those silver foil trays. He went back into the kitchen, gave them a quick slush of cold water under the tap then handed them over to the chef's who started filling them with food.
I vowed never to eat there.

On a country road in Scotland. I was overtaken by something like a Jaguar XK8. No dramas until the black BMW behind me lit up its blues and took off after the Jag.
A couple of miles later the unmarked BMW had stopped the Jag. It's driver - a woman in a bright pink cowboy suit complete with boots and 10-gallon hat - was out of her car apparently having an animated row with the cops who were standing, just out of striking range open-mouthed in disbelief.

I was just telling the missus about mine the other day actually... was sat a traffic lights, when someone went past on the pavement on roller skates, dressed in only an apron (arse was out!) carrying a big old tray of buns :|
So glad I had someone else in the car with me to a) prove it happened, and b) prove I wasn't seeing things lol
Missus reckons it was either a dare, or he was advertising something.

Heading North on the A5 just to the South of Milton Keynes on Saturday and noticed a quite large deer (not Muntjac) clearly dead on the cross hatching just before the road becomes dual carriageway. Return journey I glance across to the other carriageway as there is a new C Class Mercedes stopped by the side of the road just after it becomes dual carriageway. My assumption that it is broken down was confirmed for a nanosecond when I saw a woman, smartly dressed all in white, about 30 yards behind the car. As I went past I realised that she was in fact dragging this bloody great deer along the road by its back legs! I assume it was destined for that evening’s barbecue but wondered how she intended to get it in the boot without getting covered in deer juice! Fair do’s for making use of it - it won’t have needed hanging as it had been there in 25 degree heat since the morning according to my wife...
