Reverse Parking?

January 18, 2008

The French are EXPERTS at getting their car into the tinest space…and if it isn’t really a space they just nudge the cars in front and behind until it is a space!

I am - WAS - rubbish at parking.  I didn’t even try, I went straight to the car park where I knew there would be free spaces.

On a Friday afternoon Fabienne gives me French lessons.  But today she decided that enough was enough and I needed to take my cultural adaptation further.  So we went to the church car park in the rain with willow branches, washing liquid bottles full of water, and pegs!  With all this she managed to make a mock up road and teach me to reverse park!  Miracle!  (I still have to do it for real on my own…so I’m holding abck on the full blown celebrations for the moment!)

 Here is the photographioc evidence!!
