Two of the happiest hours of my life (I don't claim to be nice) were spent watching someone I knew trying to retrieve a Drascombe onto a trailer at a slip with a very strong cross-current if you time it wrong. The person concerned was always willing to point out perceived faults in others, so the rising humiliation and fury - directed at the entirely innocent driver of the car attached to the trailer - were highly rewarding. They gave up in the end. My only regret was that I had no video camera with me. Nowadays I'd have it on YouTube, set to Yakety Sax, before you could blink.
