On a bitterly cold winter’s morning a husband and wife in Essex were watching Breakfast TV.

The presenter said, ”We are going to have 10cms of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snow ploughs can get through”.

So the good wife went out and parked her car as instructed.

A week later while they were watching TV again, the presenter said, ”We are expecting 15cms of snow today. This time you must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the snow ploughs can get through.
The good wife went out and parked her car accordingly.

The next week they are again having breakfast when the TV forecaster says, ”We are expecting at least 20cms of snow today. You must park…………..” Then the power went off.

The good wife was very upset and with a worried look on her face she said, ”I don’t know what to do!
Which side of the street do I need to park on today so the snow ploughs can get through?”Then, with all the love and understanding that is a necessity for any man married to an Essex blonde, the husband replied ”Why don’t you just leave the bloody car in the garage this time?”
