PeteMorris   10 #1 Posted July 18, 2015 I've finally discovered the secret of recognising your own car in a sea of others in a supermarket car park...It's really simple...How I didn't cotton on to this before is a complete mystery!  Mine's the one with the sofa hanging out of the back of it...  See...I told you it was simple.  What's your secret weapon?

Tim1 Â Â 10 #3 Posted July 18, 2015 Took me 5 minutes of flapping to realise I had come out in my fellas car not mine yesterday in Asda. I got a right sweat on.

PeteMorris   10 #4 Posted July 18, 2015 Being serious for a second (is that possible for me?)...I did the same a few weeks ago...could of sworn I parked my car in one place, and it turned out to be in somewhere completely different...I was really panicking.  Could actually be old age creeping up on me though...

cgksheff   44 #7 Posted July 18, 2015 How about, when you see 'your' car (colour and make/model), unlock the door get in and then start cursing because the key won't turn in the ignition!  After a few goes, you look around a bit and seeing strange items in the car, realise that it is not yours after all. Get out, check registration and learn that there are only so many variations of keys in the world!  Then, scuttle away to find your own car again before being spotted and accused of trying to steal someone else's!

francypants   441 #11 Posted July 18, 2015 I've tried to get into same make/colour cars a couple of times, before realizing it's not my car. Believe me, you don't half feel daft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
