Having been snowed in and out of home, flooded in and living at the end of the worst maintained road in the western world, we've managed to get hold of a Range Rover in order to be able to survive the extremes of living out here.
But it's so massive I feel like I'm taking up the entire road driving it. I don't have any concept of the size of the vehicle and to make matters worse I can't reach the accelerator - qhelle surprise (I'm 5')
I drove home at 25mph on our deresticted country lane absolutely moritifed and ashamed that I had become a yummy mummy cliche unable to handle one of these beasts. And I've not even tried to park it yet.
How do people manage to control these things???
DD is 20 months and calls it our "'normous car"
I need to get used to it - is there anything I can do to drive it safely and without people cursing the very ground I drive on?
Dh is part filling it with vegetable oil so at least it's not as evil a gas guzzler as some, but even so...
