How Stupid Am I? email this discussion to a friend?

My van has a bit of a dodgy handbrake, and hubby pulls it on VERY tight. I tried to move off this morning and discovered that I couldn't release it. I was trying with my left hand of course as it's a right hand drive, an my left is my weaker arm. So what do I do? I jump over to the passenger side so that I can release it with my right hand ....

... and promptly roll into a wall!

What's the stupidest thing you've done recently? Go on, make me feel better!

OOOOps. I hope the van, you and the wall all survived unscathed. Right now to try and make you feel better about it, what silly things I have done lately....mmmm oh I know and this was just so silly I was in a rush and wanted a quick cuppa and to put washing machine on before I went off out and I ended up put the washing tablet into my cup instead of the T-bag, more haste less speed eh! LOL. Ellie:D

Thankfully I was parked very close to the wall, so no damage done (apart to my reputation as a driver!).

I'm awfully glad you noticed the washing tablet BEFORE you drank your cuppa, although I suppose it would have given you nice clean insides!

Try reversing out of a tight driveway and a DOOR flips open.......Hello. Goodbye one door, Rips them right off, TRUE.

Been there, Done that, "DOH".

Oh now you're reminding me of other daft things I've done in the van. How about roaring around in a right circle to exit the village, forgetting to shut the sliding door, and emptying the contents of the van onto the road?

Cheaper than ripping the door right off though!

Don't feel badly. I'm not good at driving in reverse, backing up. I hit two police cars two separate times when I was in my 20's. The cops were nice and didn't give me tickets, no real damage done. But that was incredibly stupid. blush


myLot reputation of 88/100. GreenMoo (1925)   ranked 1,961 out of 27,506 in life  5 months ago

I have to agree! If you're going to hit something, don't choose a police car LoL

LOL... Stupidest thing I ever did today was to let the dog take me for a walk. I wanted to know exactly what she would do if I did not say "No, Tina" and "come here, Tina." Well, now I know! She goes round and round in circles, sniffing the same pebbles over and over again, and finally pees in one corner, and then looks up at me wagging her tail as if to say, "have you finished? shall we go home now?" Frankly, I was tired out after the walk. Decided this was the last time she takes me for a walk. Dogs will be dogs just as boys will be boys. No force of earth can change them.:)

Cheers and happy mylotting


myLot reputation of 88/100. GreenMoo (1925)   ranked 1,961 out of 27,506 in life  5 months ago

I reckon that Tina was standing there waiting for you to have a pee in the corner too!

How horrible! It reminds me of the old Triumph my husband owned when we were first married. I could manage to drive it to work, but for the life of me, I couldn't ever get it into reverse! Some days I was lucky and could park so I'd be able to drive out front first - other times, I'd have to phone my husband to get a lift into town to put the car into reverse for me! Suffice to say, we traded it in for an automatic soon afterwards!


myLot reputation of 88/100. GreenMoo (1925)   ranked 1,961 out of 27,506 in life  4 months ago

I took a car for a test drive a little while ago & miscalculated turning it in a pub car park. I couldn't get it into reverse, however much I struggled so I had to go inside and ask the guys at the bar for help. I was SO embarrassed blush
