you prepare to do a job by getting a first aid kit out because of busted knuckles, before getting your tools out!

A real mini driver would bleed all over the kitchen whilst looking for it,finally giving up and wrapping a bit of kitchen towel arount their partially severed finger.

....when your wife/husband asks why you're looking at minis on ebay when you've already filled the garage and drive with them.

When you move the sofa closer to the living room window.
When you move the bed closer the bedroom window.
When you look out of said windows every time you hear an exhaust.

When you keep a pop bottle full of water in the back.
When you assess what tools to take with you based on distance of the drive.

When you lock up the brakes on normal cars.
When you cant park normal cars for toffee.

When you get embarrassed at the thought of it not starting in the works carpark. And when you breath that sigh of relief when it eventually does.

Just a few ive noticed of myself over the years, the mrs could elaborate further, but she's busy looking for the jump leads.
