Dunnooo how much we'll get if at all. None has fallen here, but it bloody cold.
Peg had to go to a conference in Harrogate today, met colleagues at work for 7am....didn't take the zzr, went in our Landy.

The catch, the boss didn't use his brain, and have Peg take them in our car, they've gone in his ultra un-reliable Ford Dustbin, with knackered heaters, that failed it MoT when it suspension collapsed( I believe it was fixed though).... and its snowing up there!

So I expect him home late, cold and in a lot of pain, because he can't fit in a Ford Dustbin, and his knee will be giving him jip, along with that steel rod thats been playing up lately....grumpy Peg

I'm praying for a grim winter. My contract is up at the end of January and I'm handling complaints about poor repairs/bad service in relation to car insurance. If the weather is grim, there'll be more bumps. More bumps means the garages will be swamped as will the customer services departments. That will generate more complaints, and my contract will get extended meaning I don't need to start touting for business just after Christmas.

SO SNOW, DAGNAMMIT!!

I know you know this but Im bored so Im going to be a t***

Bike = Accepted abreviation of bicycle, bi meaning 2. Cycle meaning cycle ta-da!
Seen as a quad is neither 2 wheeled or cycled then in fairness to catagorise it as a bicycle is about as in accurate as possible.
And before anyone questions that their motorbike isnt a cycle either, check your log book

I do happen to agree with you though, its more motorbike than car in that you ride it not drive it
your on it not in it
they've handle bars not steering wheels,
they're for 1 or 2 persons never more

Thats about it I've run out of similarities lol.
