As I 'm now considered 'retired', I think I'm fairly safe !!
Dearest - you didn't say anything - I guess it's going to be something about women drivers, but as we all
KNOW that the fairer sex are
FAR BETTER at driving than men, I can't see what your problem is - obviously you have had much more experience of driving a Trashco battery thingy than I have - as you are "retired"

OK Matt - I will let my daughter show you just how good she is at off roading if you like - although I doubt you will survive the experience without a sick bag....

Something to do with her driving?
In seriousness though, most women are great drivers, but even the future Mrs Plum admits she can't park!

Perhaps that is because you bark at her when she is trying to park? Making the entire experience one of scared and frightendess. I cannot condoone your behaviour towards your about to be Lady Wife - she needs to be treated Properly - And don't make comments re the kitchen appliences being white as she gets down the aisle........
see other thread about your punishment...

so there IS an 'Er indoors.
I can park extremely well. Especially when no-one is watching.
A tip, always try to park alongside a shop window so you can see where you are.
I got out of the car a couple of weeks ago to find that I had parked with my spare wheel on the back overhanging the bumper of the car behind.

Plummy doesn't strike me as the barking type, more the soft purr and sometime chirrup of a tortoiseshell cat.
