oi. wrecking one car a day is enough :)
I hit a pole today, well, I really just bumped it but enough that it made a
scrape. I'm sure that it will cost me a zillion $$ to get fixed. lol
Someone needs to tell the car makers that bumpers are for BUMPING and
should at least be able to withstand the damage of hitting a pole at less
than 5 miles per hour.
ok, back to my morning coffee. :) Today is a better day.

Someone should tell the pole too ;-).

At least you're staying positive :-).

Ugh. I tell you in this town the roads are so narrow and the parking
lots are so squished it won't be long before I hit a pole I'm sure. I'm
not surprised there are intersections marked "Dangerous" here!

Sorry to hear it.
But they do, you know. Most European manufacturers design the bumpers to
withstand low speed impacts by absorbing and bouncing back.
When I was with the BBC, the Saab drivers used to make sure their cars were
parked properly by bouncing them off the dividers.

lol, at least I'm not the only one who doesn't read - you're supposed to
park the other way round. But I saw the second round, and thought I'd give
the rest of it a miss.

very fun!
irl I hadnt driven for 3 weeks due to various reasons and was starting
to get rather apprehensive about it again.
So dh suggested I did the driving today over to a city about 20 miles
away. I was convinced I was going to make all sorts of mistakes, stall
the car etc. Apart from the final inner city bit (which is a pig even
for experienced drivers) which dh did I did it - without problems - yay!
Its amazing what a boost it is even though its a normal thing for other
people.
