Giving advice

When someone is digging up a road or tinkering under a car bonnet, you’ll invariably find several people gathered around them who will be full of advice – not actually helping, just telling them what they should be doing. Even if you think that nobody’s seen you delicately manoeuvre your car into a precious kerbside gap on a residential street, someone is still quite likely to shout down from their balcony: ‘can you move back a bit so you’re not outside the entrance’ or ‘can you move forward slightly because the woman whose car is behind you is a terrible driver.’
