Helped P fix a mirror on the back wall of the garage to enable me to see the nose of the car when I'm pulling in. Space is at a premium so I have to go in as far as possible. Preparing the silver submarine for sale. It's going on Wednesday and I shall be very sad. The garage offered £4 in part exchange! An insult. Carwow got us £754 for it. How many seeds could I buy with that?I used to reverse my car into the garage. To stop me going too far, we put a plank of wood across the garage floor. When the car's back wheels touched the plank I knew it was time to stop.
With another car, we hung a pingpong ball from the garage roof that bounced on the window when it was time to stop.
I'm just lazy now and leave the car out in all weathers!
Ditto, we have an old eraser on a string hanging from the ceiling to touch the windscreen. It has worked well for years. I now have a mirror and a dingle dangle, belt and braces or what! The proof of the pudding will be if I don't lose control of the automatic and barge through P's workshop wall. The plank idea is ingenious. I expect you have to leave the car outside because the garage is full of all that free food you keep collecting.
