Things my grandma taught me, lesson #1.
Dear Marc, I know you spent a lot of time with your grandma, growing up. Yesterday I went to see my own granny. She's 90 and tried to cheer me up as I told her I'm doing my best to get my driving back on track.
I don't really like driving, I'm scared. But thinking I will soon love it, I have to go on.
I only have two problems with driving
1. The speed. I like walking pace.
2. Other cars.
My granny listened to my bitching and then gave me her sound advice:
"Always wear a beautiful, big hat when you drive a car. I always did and it worked wonders. The other, mostly male drivers, let me drive first".
What did your grandma teach you?
Love from below the brim

What a fantastic idea. However, all of my big floppy beautiful hats block my peripheral vision, which is not a great idea when I'm driving downtown.
My grandmother taught me to wear the big beautiful hat around the house and bat my eyelashes a lot, so that the men about the place would simply drop what they were doing and drive me wherever I wanted to go. Try that, maybe?
Unfortunately I didn´t have a close relationship with my grandmother.
