A slight Mishap! - Real Mum story on MoM

16 Comments

Sometime ago not long after taking possession of my lovely new car I took one of my grandson’s to footy training. He is an IT genius and figuring out all the buttons and knobs or me on the dash board etc. He went off to training and I tried to turn on the ignition! Nothing!!! Instant panic or dismay set in. I rang hubby on my mobile phone and said my beautiful car would not start? His question was .Don’t panic dear is the car in drive or park? Sure enough when I looked it was not in park! I was so relieved but boy did I have egg on my face! lol!!!

lol…I did the same thing a few years ago in my new car & I was on a lunch break waiting for NRMA repairman to arrive. I couldn’t admit it was my mistake when I got back to work late though!
