Parking, a follow on from two spaces.

Are you indecisive?
Do you spend ages in an almost empty car park deciding which space to park in?
Then change your mind & park in another space?

My Daughter does this, it makes me laugh & frustrated each time. Doesn't matter which car she's driving either & she has 3 to chose from, small to large, she can never make up her mind straight away.

Gawd that's my husband to a t ! Me I look for a big space and I'm in it. I'd consider it a failure to go past and come back to it.

Yes, l do that occasionally! I also try to find two in line so that l can park in the far one and drive straight out!

Oh, then l go in the supermarket and do the same there with the cauliflowers or the broccoli or even the loaves of bread!
Indecision is a terrible thing!!

That's good if no one else parks in it. Daughter likes end spaces, or if she is driving the big car a wide one.

Daughter hates someone parking next to her car.

Ah! I see. I don't drive even though I have my late OH's car. Daughter uses it as well as her own & her Partners, hence 3 she can chose.

Re: Parking, a follow on from two spaces.

I park at the Park and Ride 3 days a week and I always like to park about in the same spot so that I know where my car is when I go home in the evening. I always lose it. Luckily I now have one of those clickers that unlocks the car and I look for lights flashing.

In a supermarket I always go to the back so that I have room to park. I am not bad at parking just like a lot of room.
