Do not change gears when driving an automatic. Left foot on "clutch" (the brake) grab the automatic lever and throw it into 3rd gear. Crunch!

And for the OHs out there. Never, ever put the missuses designer label pure lamb's wool, bought it at a real bargain price, cardigan into the washing machine.

Don't put your mobile phone in your top pocket, just as you bend down to stir the paint in your paint tin

If shopping with your sister,when she's about to put her PIN number in to pay for an item-DON'T reel off random numbers as she will mess up three times,get her card rejected & make you suffer for a long time (you also have to pay for her shopping) :(

If tempted to shoot your mouth off, sit on your hands!!

And another one! When eating flambed kebabs in a restaurant hold the skewer over the plate - not the table cloth. Yes I set fire to the table cloth.
