...I think the issue with me is that I have almost never had to do it. All our properties have had off road parking and, when working, I always had access to a car park.

Spot on. The problem is not lack of training, it's lack of practice (and that applies to both male and female drivers). If, like me, you live in a street of terraced houses where every journey ends with a parallel park (sometimes in spaces so tight you get both front and rear sensors sounding simultaneously) you soon get good at it.

My front and rear sensors are called "Bumpers".

When I first moved to Norfolk, people would mention "A Norfolk reversing sensor", eventually someone let me in on the joke, they meant a towbar!
