The problem with moving house is that everything’s in a different place, so you’re constantly having to re-orientate yourself. In my case this confusion has also extended to driving the car. A rapid succession of minor but embarrassing incidents (the sort where you reverse into someone’s stationary car while they’re watching you) culminated in me driving into the Uplyme village hall railings. Thus leaving a gaping hole in the side of the car. Right in front of all the mums waiting for pre-school pick-up. Yes, Morning everyone! I’m the hapless new mum in the village…hello!
I notice that they all scurry across the road nervously as I pull up for school in the morning now. That’s not including those that just laugh openly when I get out of the car.
Still, at least I didn't do this.....
