6th sense

Post by flybobbie » Thu Feb 01, 2024 9:22 pm

So i pull on local Lidl car park and ask myself, park at the back of car park, but do i park last or last but one space.
So take the end last space, all others empty..
I sit and look around to see who will reverse into my car......feel it in my waters!

Sure enough i return and approach my car, woman stood there with suv behind her.
Me just knowing what she's waiting for.

"Sorry this your car, i reversed into your cars door"

Total fate.
OK i say, we exchange details and i'm totally nonplussed, i just knew it was going to happen..... :|

They say we live in a universe that is actually a virtual reality game that some other entity is playing.
I am beginning to believe this, too many, i knew that was going to happen events.

I was once stood on apron discussing the good weather with fellow flying instructor, i said the sort of day someone dies.
The aircraft a few yards away from us later that day collided with a microlight at popular turning point killing person in that plane.
Where do these thoughts come from, some vibe, some frequency?

I said next day another pilot would be in the newspapers tomorrow.
Sure enough he flew into a mountain..
Another collided with a Jaguar jet.
Another flew iced up aircraft and crashed.

I parked my Z4 in a supermarket car park on Tuesday well away from everyone, and just knew it wouldn't be on its own when I got back to it.

Sure enough there was an SUV behind it! But at least it wasn't next to it so I could still get in. :)

But your "spidey" sense seems to be on another level. Please don't ever think about my car. :wink: :lol:

I am fed up of thinking bad things and they happen.
I can say nothing good happens.

The rare times I drive to the local supermarkets, I park where nobody even drives to. The other day I parked next to a C8. I figured both of us were safe.

I have often parked in what appears like a good space. Sat for a moment and got the urge to move and do ? :?

It’s amazing how many times I park along way away from other cars in a fairly empty car park to get back to find others have parked around me. WTF. It seems my car has a magnetic attraction to other cars. :thumbsup:

I regularly drive into car parks and then back out again if I’m not 100% happy I’ve got a safe space, luckily Mrs H loves the Zed too and is very understanding. This is an example of how I like to leave the her ( the zed not the wife ).

Two things surprise me on this thread.
No-one seems to care if your car was badly damaged.
And the woman actually waited and owned up!!!!
HQ of 'Norfolk Zed Rescue'.
Always happy to help if I can.

If the forum helped you, why not help the forum back. Thats the Z4 way! :thumbsup:
