Adrenalin, Rush

Someone Give Diva The Rundown

A colleague who answers to the name of Diva and who has a terrific sense of humour, recently fessed up. She reckons she’s not a dangerous driver but reveals that she almost ran down not one but two Australian thespians - the ageless Sigrid Thornton and Oscar winner Geoffrey Rush.Diva claims both incidents happened when she had right of way and that each time the actors put their hands up in apology. Naaaah, I’m not buying her yarn - I figure they put their hands up as a final gesture of surrender.

FOOTNOTE: She’s a repeat fender.

Hi Keshi,

And she swears blind she's not a bad driver. But she's picking off the stars, one by one!

Cheers

It wasn't in surrender, I'll bet it was in a gesture that meant the complete opposite, man of the cloth or not..

Hi Carol,

Now there's a thought. I'm getting your drift. Like, the bird, for instance!

Cheers

I have a friend named DIVA. She pronounces it with a long "i" like GODIVA chocolates. I rode with her last week holding on to the hand grip for my dear life!

Is she sure it was their HANDS that were raised?

Hi Darlene,

White-knuckle ride? Yup, your Diiiva is related to the Aussie Diva. No doubt about it!
