"nee-naw"

I just read this on a blog. It's about a couple of EMTs in England. I love it because it sounds like something i would do. Haha.

A busy Saturday day shift:

We were travelling to an emergency, with blue lights and sirens, when all of a sudden the sirens fail. Looking at each other, we decide if we should inform control that we could not continue?....or should we just carry on without the sirens?…..or should we make our own siren noises using the PA system on the vehicle? What followed was the most surreal 2 minutes of my ambulance career. Travelling down the A1 with Dom on the mic, using the intercom through the loudhailer on the front of our Chevy G30 ambulance making his own “nee-naw”, “yelp” and “wail” noises. With tears running down our faces from laughing so much, we arrived at the patients house, within our 8 minutes.
