My daughter has just mentioned doing something very similar in her car! I was a passenger in the car. I had been told to keep quiet because I made her nervous. There you are it was all your fault! I must admit that the other day I found myself parallel parking for the first time in ages. Mostly I park in the butcher's car park and walk down into town! But there was a serously irritating little man on the pavement who kept trying to direct me "back a bit, forward a bit, left hand down" etc. etc. and at one point, actually standing behind my car! Eventually, I gunned the engine, he jumped a mile, got the message and went away! I don't know 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 pontoons and do the same to yachts coming into berths! -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |
