If it didn’t use to happen then perhaps you’ve put on weight, or taken too much viagra
Don’t blame that they cut jeans smaller these days either...

OK, I admit it. But am I the only one who's put on weight, takes Viagra (Cialis, actually), has tight jeans and keeps his key fob in his pocket?

You need a man bag for your keys or a wife to hold them while you take your shoes off. Its even worse on these new cars . I was always petrified I would press my fob you X1 that had assisted boot opening while it was in the garage.

I think Boot opening should need a double press or a 4sec press.
