i have a big car and I really can't park...so I can on;y drive to waitrose (yea!!!!) or a friend wih a drive...but in my defense I couldn't park out Ka either...so I really am crap...

monkeyface how did your dh take it or haven't you told him?

I parked recently in a spot with TWO inches either end of my bumpers (parallel parking). It was outside the pub on our street and once I'd got out without hitting anything, this almighty cheer came from the blokes in the pub!! I even bowed ROFL!

That's a lot of cars.

you've owned 15 cars in 5 years????

Oh ffs you lot lighten up, it was tounge in cheek cuz I was pissed off. Of course it wasnt his fault but I didnt wanna admit it was mine!
And Im perfectly capeable of driving thanks, in 5+ years of driving/owning around 15 cars Ive never so much as had a scrape.
Jeez, at least cruella and feiera got the hang of the thread

yabu - i drive a ka but can easily drive my mothers rav4 the larger one, and have driven lots a large cars without crashing them.

If you chose a big car, how can it be your husband's fault you crashed it?

Right, if you chose it definitely YABU - but funny!

See Im a great driver, its a standing joke amongst my circle that I could reverse park a double decker. So thanks for all the paronising comments! I did choose my own car too, a lovely big American Dodge. But he paid for it, so my comment that he bought it me was spot on.
There was a broken metal pole sticking up just inside the hedge that I got caught on, no mirror in the world would have shown it to me.
But got a whole new bumper put on today for £300 so all good.

My DH chose a people carrier, and I find it a nightmare to park too. I'll only park it if it's a drive-in space, or if I can see it's reflection in shop windows as a guide to see how near I am to the car behind mine. Otherwise I drive on...
