Simon! Welcome back! 
And I have no cares for what people think of how I look. I am five foot tall, and all of my blood comes from places that are historically known for harsh winters... and a significant portion of that blood is from places known for having very little food available in those winters. My body is genetically set up to store calories if I even look at a grain of rice! LOL If someone doesn't like it, that's their problem, not mine.

Me too! I should be about 10 ft tall!
Yeah... I am exactly 5' 0"... I can't drive a stick shift, for the simple reason that I end up STANDING in my seat to push the clutch in!
And as far as metabolism goes.... in my case, it's just almost nonexistent, it's so slow! But yep, I would indeed survive a winter famine!
I'm the tallest at of the women in my family from the older generations...my daughter is way taller than me. Which comes in very useful when I can't reach something...it's frustating though sometimes. I drive a very small car but it's bigger than my last one which I adored but then it was red and we all know red cars go faster. My new one is blue due to the circumstance in having to buy it I couldn't wait to get a red version. I've had it a year now and it still doesn't feel right even though it is a nice vehicle.

Wow - I'm actually taller than someone here (by an entire 1/2", that is
). You need a smaller car, Seliah!We have a number of older cars...2 that we actually bought new are red. I refer to them as our midlife crisis cars. Red cars are sometimes referred to here as "Arrest me Red" since they seem to catch the eyes of the police
. And maybe it is because they go faster, too lol

It WAS a small car back when I was doing the whole stick shift thing. My Bear just about blew an aneurysm when he realized I was basically STANDING UP in my seat to use the stick shift.... and he wouldn't let me drive that car ever again, either. The next car we got he uncharacteristically insisted on an automatic (he much, MUCH prefers manual over automatic transmissions) and would not admit that he insisted on it so that I wouldn't have to stand up to push in the clutch. LOL!

LOL. My brother just called them "Cop Lover Reds" because they tend to attract officers so much...
I think it's also a matter of how far forward the seat goes - some cars are definitely harder than others. Also, if your legs are really short (mine are short, but they reach the ground, which is all that REALLY counts ) that can make it harder! I don't drive much these days, and only some of our cars are manual (hubby prefers manual cars, too). But it's something to take into consideration, for sure!

My mother was exactly 5' as well, and we had to add an extension on the brake of my dad's car, or she'd never be able to stop it, and that's after pulling the car seat as far forward as she could.Yeah...

Haha... yes, exactly my situation!! I don't drive much, needless to say. If he's home, he gets to do it.
My dad didn't want either of us driving HIS car, but he had the worst sense of direction I've ever come across, so mom had to learn to drive so we could get where we were going without having to listen to dad cursing because he got lost again. Of course, that changed again once I got my own car, but he used to sit there and grumble while mom was driving.Haha... yes, exactly my situation!! I don't drive much, needless to say.
