Hope all goes well tomorrow.
I now reverse onto my drive and in the bad weather I park right up at the top beside the road so that if weather not good I can hopefully just drive out.2 years ago was stuck in for 15 days.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

I am going to be the odd one out here
I always reverse into a parking space. I don't know why, I just find it easier to reverse in and drive out. It's not handy in the supermarket when trying to get the shopping in the boot, but still I do it.Free by FiftyDebt of the Moment -August NSD Challenge 14/150 -
Have a good day rising, and don't overdo things. Baby-steps remember!!Making magic with fabricLight travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.0

Oh wow! You lot ....
thank you for all the lovely good wishes:)
Pleased to say - 1st day over .... I was starting to feel tired after an hour & a halfbut managed to survive the 4 hours:T
Journey in was OK and a bit worse coming home (getting really windy) - had to park in the long stay car park (at the back of a supermarket) and was a bit worried I'd not get back out (snow filled spaces & uphill:eek:) but winter tyres grip fantastically :T
Not sure where I'll leave it tomorrow as expect it'll be worse then:eek:
Reversed into the drive againmade a total hash of it ... not one ... not two ... but multiple times
(there's a blind spot that I can't see round!) hope none of my neighbours were watching or they'd have had a right laugh!
Had Maisie for her walk - it was OK going but when I turned round to come back the snow was horizontal in my face and the wind horrid
Glad to be in the house ... and even more glad that I don't need to go out again today!:)
