My car is a wheelchair accessible car. It is quite wide and has two passenger seats in the front and two in the back. When I was choosing my car, I made sure that there was enough space for a carer and for Holly to bring a friend or two on days out.
My car is often full of teenagers, mostly boys, and it can get a little crowded at times. When I have two passengers in the front, the passenger closest to me often has their knees pretty close to my gear stick so when I am changing gears, my hand nudges against them.

| the front seat of my car |
One particular teenage boy, A we'll call him, to save his embarrassment, liked to sit next to me in the front. This used to cause a lot of hilarity among Holly and her mates. They were sure that he had a bit of a 'crush' but I just thought he was pretty funny.
A couple of times while changing gear, I brushed against A's leg and he would shout loudly "Holly, your mum is feeling up my leg!". This caused them all to fall about laughing as usual but it was starting to get a bit outta hand so I decided next time it happened, I would sort him out.
Sure enough a few days later, I had a car full of teenagers, with A, having pride of place in the seat next to me. I was driving along, had to change gear and off he went telling his mates that I was once again "feeling up his leg!".
After the hilarity died down, I pulled into the side of the road and stopped the car. I turned the music down and said to A " I think you are getting a bit confused here, so I will clarify it for you!". I demonstrated changing gear and commented "this is what happens when I change gear. Right?" as I nudged his leg. He nodded, wondering what the hell I was on about and then I began to stroke his knee, saying "and this is what happens when I feel up your leg! You see the difference? So which one am I doing?"
A's face was bright red and he looked totally mortified but he finally muttered "changing gear". I replied "that I didn't get that" so he said it louder! Holly and her pals were in hysterics, and one of them blurted out " ha ha A, you've just been owned by Holly's mum!!!!".
Suffice to say, he didn't do it again, in fact he wouldn't even sit next to me after that!!! I'm bad!
