I like this enough to forgive you for the comment about women drivers

Thanks a lot for the fave, luv. Women drivers are fine....as long as they warn us when they are going to be on the road.

I'd agree that women "of a certain age" can be a liability, and ditzy girly-girls - I have witnessed this and won't dispute it. However, not *all* women are bad drivers

Listened to womans hour at work this morning. Yes... I listen to womans hour. There was a piece about older women drivers being a liability. I think every feminist in the country commented. It was hilarious.....

Must be a source of both mystification and hilarity
I witnessed my mum, who'd been driving incident free since 1965, in 1997 reverse into a car parked in a residential car park and say "eeeh, that's not normally there!". At that point I realised women in a certain age bracket should be given a pink warning light or similar. And don't get me started on ditzy young girls who somehow (!) get through their tests. I can drive, just never sat my test and I'm safer than half the drivers on the road - certainly more aware of what's going on around me!

Thank you and thanks for the fave. I liked the symmetry of the roof, the pillars and the shadows, but after taking a couple, thought that it needed the motion of a car to add a bit of character.

Next week I am going with her to enquire about mortgages. I love being involved. She and Dave are the most important things in the world. Just like everyone's kids are.

I truly love the abstract nature of this image! However there is only point of contention for me... That car is driving on the wrong side of the road! please mirror the image for me that i can appease my sense of pending destruction!

photonig In reply to BillyRWebb [2010-01-31 17:28:59 +0000 UTC]

lol Thanks for the fave, Billy. Only trouble with mirroring the image, is that I would then feel uncomfortable.

because he lives in England, i figured he would appreciate my americanised version of sarcasm! We all know that the British have perfected sarcasm to a science!

photonig In reply to BillyRWebb [2010-01-31 17:31:20 +0000 UTC]

Yes I did appreciate your sarcasm. Thing is, we have a high percentage of women drivers over here. Subsequently we male drivers have to drive with exaggerated caution.
