    And maybe you should take note of your own signature footnote?


    When that footnote qoute was devised cars were not invented.;)
    Nature wants the human race to survive. However, it does not depend on us because we are not its only invention.

    When trollys come into play its not that simple.

    I used to reverse in & if I couldn't get a trolly down the side OR get the boot open I would pull out & load, but people get the mega hump at driving around you & you can be sure the person I'm blocking while I do this suddenly turns up & has nothing to load & wants to go & sometimes the trolly moves when I'm moving the car.

    So I drive in sometimes, to save all the messing about.

    One thing that this thread has shown is that women are more confident about their ability to reverse out of a space.:T:T:T:T

    It seems only men "have" to reverse into a space so they can drive out easily while women will park whichever way is most practical for the situation knowing they can easily get out of the space even backwards. :T:T:T

    Men are obviously trying to catch up with women who have less accidents that men, per insurance companies, by only parking one way to reduce their chances of pranging another car.

    So women are not only better drivers but now we are better parkers too:T:T:T:rotfl:

    You can always tell if a car has been owned by a female, check the side walls on the nearside tyres.. :D

    A man was driving when a traffic camera flashed. He thought his picture was taken for exceeding the speed limit, even though he knew he was not speeding.
    Just to be sure, he went around the block and passed the same spot, driving even more slowly, but again the camera flashed.
    He thought this was quite funny, so he slowed down even further as he drove past the area, but the traffic camera flashed yet again. He tried a fourth time with the same result. The fifth time he was laughing when the camera flashed as he rolled past at a snail's pace.
    Two weeks later, he got five traffic fine letters in the mail for driving without a seat belt.:D

    I've got an idea for you MrsE!

    You do your Waitrose shop online and have it delivered to you! Then you can just pop into Marks and Sparks for the little extras. That way, you have little chance of getting the Cayenne scratched! ;)
