　　Have you heard the story about the two drivers who wanted to park their cars in the same parking space? The man who arrived at the parking space first was rather old with grey hair. He was driving a large Rolls Royce. The beautiful car stopped just in front of the parking space. Then the driver turned his head and very slowly began to drive his car into the space. Just as he was doing this, a very young man in a Mini came up from behind. He noticed the space and drove straight in, nose first. The older driver in the Royce stopped his car suddenly. He was very angry and red in the face. He wound down his window and looked at the young man. But the young man wasn't sorry. He had got out of his car now and he was laughing. “You have to be young to do that!” he said to the older driver and pointed at his Mini and at the space he had just taken.
