"Researchers found that women were better at manoeuvring into tight spots, and also beat men in tests on technique and accuracy."

What about these:



To be fair there is no proof that they are all Women.

Oooooooooooh look!

I have just seen a giant pig fly by at the head of a formation of pink elephants ridden by Snow White and the seven dwarfs. And I also have definitive proof that black is sometimes white, the moon is made of cheese, and Shergar is alive and well and living in my back garden.

And if you believe that, you will believe that it is a fact that women are (in general) better at manoeuvring into tight spots than men.

Bring it on MG! ;D :P

BE, is your vid of an NSL parking manager or is it a random prize cock? Nigel, some very good examples but what are the chaps capable of? Here's a pleasant young man from the colonies. He needs a little more practice but he definitely shows promise.


Appealing to the council is like playing chess with a pigeon. You might be a chess grand master but the pigeon will always knock all the pieces over, shit on the board and then strut around triumphantly.

If he keeps practising hi may get the hang of driving. ;D
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Beer in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up,  totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a  ride!!"

Please consult with me when this guy learns how to ride a bike through the centre of London on a daily basis and proves he can remain upright on a motorbike.

Inanimate objects are easy to avoid. Let's see him avoid a driver, on his/her mobile phone, talking to his/her mate about shit that doesn't matter to anyone but him/her, driving all over the road, ignoring all that is important when driving, and generally endangering the lives of him/herself and all around him/her.

Then, AND ONLY THEN, will macho man prove himself to me as a decent driver.
