No photo but all vents are at the same angle and aperture.

Notice the world hasn't ended?

You're welcome.

Those coins aren't arranged from small to large, and the edges of the 50p and 20p coins aren't lined up.

They're in monetary order for quick reference but I'll give you that about the edges...

I don't have OCD any more. I have a 2 year old and a good understanding of defeat. I used to keep my cars spotless to the point they didn't need cleaning. No food, no drinks and definitely no hanky panky. (I'm not dealing with the potential aftermath)

Today I am just grateful if there no ants.

I'm dreading that day when it does finally arrive. Slow Jnr will be in a polythene bag for car journeys if I can get away with it.

For me the radio must be an even number but the temperature I allow to be odd.

I have to have the cigarette lighter with the smoke rising vertically. In my current caryou can't even see the lighter as it's behind the ashtray lid!

the stereo must be set to an even volume number, but the climate control must be an odd number smile

By crickey man. I may have given up but I have not lost by sense of civility. Odd?!?!? Allowed numbers are either even or factors of 5. No exceptions.

I'm another vent man (and too lazy to post a photo).

Passenger side vent must be pointing slighty up and towards the window, centre vents aligned and pushing air to the centre of the car and for the benefit of rear seat passengers, drivers side vent points up and towards the side window.

Car is vacuumed after every long run if the weather allows.

I must post a photo of the boot of my car - rammed full of caving gear and ready for cave rescue/mountain rescue. Not much room for luggage. All my gear is cleaned after each outing which is unusual for a caver.

Multiples of 5. Five is a prime smile

The power symbol on the volume knob must be vertical. Volume changes are done on the steering wheel, otherwise there'll be a crooked symbol on the dash.
