I sometimes get the heel stuck under the brake pedal if I go out on a date wearing my wife's high heels.

Just your wife’s high heels?

We wore these bad boys back in the 70s when I started driving.

And you still have them in your wardrobe in case there is a revival in that style?

Actually I wore them out, once the rubber on the soles wore out the platform was a honeycombed plastic, and the rubber couldn't be replaced, so I just kept on wearing them for a while.

Get several charging cards from different companies like New Motion (sHell), don't know which you can use in UK. But that's rather important to have.
If you're using an Android Smartphone consider using A Better Route Planner (ABPR).
You might also consider buying a OBDII dongle and connect your car directly to ABPR premium.
That way you get a really good percentage calculation.

Congratulations! Suggest window tinting if car doesn't have it. Other than that just enjoy it.
