Very little work to do tonight. And I'm €500 richer. And I'm off on the drink tomorrow before the Easter break

Annabel gets here at about 9 then we are heading to the pub!
If she gets here that is... considering her last text was "Oooops didn't realize it was last call!! I guess I better go!" only cause I asked her what time she was boarding

I know, I never thought I'd pick it up perfectly first time. I really enjoy manoeuvres, my instructor said pretty much everyone else dreads them. I like precision.

I get no practice with parallel parking so id probably be worse than the standard I was when I passed my test. Around my nans area in Southend I have no choice but to do it. I often am sitting a bit of a way out from the curb but it helps me getting back out of the space when I am finished visiting or whatever.

One of my best mates started a job in the NHS today working alongside the ex-editor of the (now defunct) website I wrote for until quitting at the end of 2011 and apparently she told him I'd been her best writer. I'm actually quite proud

Nice one! You should have seen mine yesterday... I was well out, at an angle and no cars nearby. Just thought "oh, fuck it" and walked off.

I go through phases of being able to park in anything and taking up 4 spaces despite all my efforts. I like to take pride in parking properly.

I did have a couple of goes at handbrake parking when the snow fell. Didn't go according to plan, its not that I have a problem flinging the back end out, its just I don't have the balls to go fast enough to make it look properly good because if I put it out of control in the car park at work I am fucked.
My poor Micra gets some fucking stick.
