i’m also assuming people know what a spoon drain is.
What I mean is that we drove a car at high speed with her in it, not that we drove her like a horse or a goat or an ox.
We had to leave town the next morning, for unrelated reasons, but then heard she’d given birth just after we left. So it works.
A pregnant woman who was overdue, we drove her at high speed through spoon drains in the hope it’d shake it out.
