Thats unlucky mate, easy mistake to make though, ive done it several times, i think its because when i leave my house of a morning its dark, and when i arrive at college its light, so i forget there on, gives me a great excuse when im late for work though :)

Oh dear, I'll tell the locals not to nick it.

I've bought little metal switches with led's in the end. They look trick and will be a little extra reminder to turn em off.

haha
bad luck mate
my mum suggested that she borrowed my mini last week when ehr car broke down
after a very stern look from me she soon reconsidered the idea
i seriously wouldnt trust her not to kill it, she drove it once, and i was terrified
never again

im lucky, my mom has driven an automatic for most of her life, and cant remeber how to drive a manual, so its safe from her :) my dad however is insured on it, and can and does borrow it quite alot, but i trust him a bit more than my mom :)
