Even if it is a teeny-weeny amount out, it grates!

Ok, the Bus is at the Bus Stop, you pull up behind and have a peep round to see if you can pass, just then the Driver puts his right indicator to pull away, great you think, no decision to be made, but, the Driver remains stationary for a least another 30 seconds. Grrrr.

So, the picture frame just has to be aligned parallel with the picture rail, by eye.
Luckily, with pictures hanging from a picture rail, they are very easy to adjust. In fact, looking at one opposite me now, it needs adjusting by about a mm!
