what it is about people that induces them to give unasked-for 'help' to
women parking cars, though I've noticed a fair few who stand on

Especially Germans :-)
Once I had detailed instructions regarding where I should moor my boat
from a German who was occupying my permanent, not for visitors berth.


They did a lot of that in the Netherlands a few decades back.

I did feel a bit sorry for the French boat that parked itself under a
sewage outlet and refused absolutely to move. Obviously, they were
convinced they'd got some prime spot and everyone else was trying to
force them off it.
