Where my ma lives, you have to be very good at doing three point turns......if you weren't you would never get back down the hill.

I stopped driving twelve years ago, but when I was working, and given my favourite parking spot......you had to be good at three point turns....many folk were not and I reckon that is why that particular place to park was always left vacant.
