This leaves just enough 'side mirror scraping' room between the parked cars to actually, oh you know, drive down the road!!!!! Who would have thought roads were for anything else but parking on. Get a garage people. End rant. Ok, so there is a lot of pulling over and letting people through and I always acknowledge with a four finger wave. Annoys me when people don't do the same for you.Laney CrashTestMummyhttp://twitter.com/crashtest_mummynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739118490318763551.post-59377389203780683182011-09-01T21:49:12.031+08:002011-09-01T21:49:12.031+08:00*finger waves* Hey, Daisy.*finger waves* Hey, Daisy.Glowlesshttp://www.wheresmyglow.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739118490318763551.post-56762034084161978002011-09-01T21:48:55.233+08:002011-09-01T21:48:55.233+08:00Maybe I should change it to Wave Guy or Country Bo...Maybe I should change it to Wave Guy or Country Boy.Glowlesshttp://www.wheresmyglow.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739118490318763551.post-47954341395462617552011-09-01T21:48:22.920+08:002011-09-01T21:48:22.920+08:00Oooh the special middle finger wave?!?!

Never on a highway. Always in my street, especially as I'm new here, don't want to upset any potential neighbours. I do love Map Guy's range of waves, though. He is very thorough.

Well, if someone is driving the same car, or has local plates, or looks like a seasonsed long-driver, I might use four fingers, and smile :D But my hands never leave the wheel lol. Unless the drivers look particularly excited to see another human, or I am particularly excited to see signs of life. Thats more of a NorthWest travelling experience though...where signs of life can be few and farrrrr between. Also, when your tweetdeck tingled, I assumed it was mine!Miss Angela Solohttp://twitter.com/solomumdotcomnoreply@blogger.com
