Great Ormond Street, London WC1, August 2008. 8 Construction workers watching me park my Merc tank with 2 inches to spare (1 inch back, 1 inch front). As I got out of the car, I heard my round of applause. One of my proudest moments, and I didn't nudge either car beside me. Wasn't that easy to get out though!

We can't judge distances after a lifetime of men telling us that this much

is 6 inches

See I hate dishwashers per se.  We only have one because Mr Cinds wanted one, he is the only one that uses it, we are in the middle of redesigning and getting a new kitchen in, and there will NOT be a dishwasher in it. The End.

I'll take you on Soops! I can make my tank believe it's a Smart Car. Strange thing is when I have acres of space it can take about 10 turns of the steering wheel before I'm OCD satisfied
