Reverse parking

I can understand the whinging guy recording the video. I never quite understood why drivers have to reverse park if they can’t do it. They hold up a whole village attempting to do it. In case they didn’t know, cars can go forward into a parking spot. Is it law that we have to reverse into a parking lot? I’m not comfortable with reverse parking so i rarely reverse park but i’m an excellent forward parker. I can go in and out within seconds. As long as i manage to get the car in and out, who is anyone to comment that i don’t reverse park? Can you forward park as well as i do? People like the driver in the following vid need to think outside the box. Or maybe their brain cells are depleting. Or they are just one of the monkey followers from the monkey story. If you’re not able to reverse park well, then just forward park and stop holding up the whole village. We don’t have all day, you know. If you want to pratice your reverse parking skills, do it in Timbuktu.

Cocoa

Dark chocolate is the best tasting of the 3 types of chocolate. White chocolate is…yuck…enough said. Milk chocolate is a little too sweet. Dark chocolate is just right…not too sweet, with a hint of bitterness. And best consumed with almonds.
