Car parking places getting smaller but the cars are the same size!! So you open a door and ding! Doesn't matter how careful you park some times either as the size of the space is basically the size of the car, in this case how are you supposed to open the doors at both sides of the car? ?? Lucky for us the back doors are automatic opening on a silder or there would be nothing left of cars after the kids throw open the doors.

The spaces in some supermarkets do seem to be a bit on the small side especially for 3 door cars whose doors are longer and need more space to allow access.
While dings in car parks are extremely frustrating, they are usually caused by carelessness rather than direct acts of vandalism. Just before I left the UK I bought a second-hand Ford Granada estate and spent two days cleaning and polishing it inside and out. It really did look nice and was virtually unmarked. My wife went to the local supermarket and when she came out someone had run a key or screwdriver around the whole car, every single panel was damaged.

All of which brings to mind that within days of receiving the keys to my brand-new transit I backed into a parked tree...
Since which time I haven't cared what the numpty french driving public do!
Troll's attitude is wholesome. Side-swipe a few french tractors and you really won't care what your car's bodywork is like!
Ps: Troll, your chillaxed attitude to life I find curiously erotic. Perhaps we should talk...

relax, Anon. My bodywork is in the same state as my car's, and I care even less!

Your careing increasingly less I am finding increasingly erotic, dearest troll...
If it helps I have a lot of money. And I just love children, other people's, especially those living in far-flung foreign lands, miles and miles away from where I live, bless their little cotten socks....
Getting back on topic, I really don't mind if you have the odd dent or two. Just because I'm in mint condition, complete with go-fast stripes, doesn't mean I can't appreciate something with a bit of 'character'...
This really could be the start of something beautiful, troll, my dear....

I wondered, dear 4stix, just how long it would be before I received some 'help' from you...
However desperate troll may or not be, in my considerable experience money does talk, it smooths away the dents (on-topic) of life and brings a turtle-wax shine to each bright new day (still on-topic, then).
And 4stix, would you want your children to say "That annon and troll were going to get together but our dad put the mockers on it!"?
No, 4stix, you wouldn't. Not even you could stand in the way of something so beautiful....

I can barely type. My throat is lumpen. My eyes welling with tears. Oh 4stix, how can one man stand in the way of this Brief Encounter? This maybe a last chance for Annon to capture a little happiness, however fleeting. Please allow him to try to convince the darling Troll to accept his advances. The worst that can happen is a little ding in her bodywork. (stayed on topic )
