    Bike in a car wash

    Was discussing our recent family pact to give up smoking last night. The conversation turned to the cars and how yukky they are starting to smell. Well yes, we know they have stunk for a while but being a smoker you don't notice.

    Anyway, my Mother-in-sin Says "I should put the Ka through the car wash. But did you know, I have to unscrew the ariel before I can go through the car wash?"

    "Really" I piped up "I have to remove both wing mirrors before I can go through on my bike!"

    A few seconds later, my partner explodes in to a fit of laughter and just about manages to get out that I was joking...

    To which she replies "Oh, it seemed a little bit silly having to remove the mirrors. Do you get very wet or have you got time to get off your bike before it starts?"

    And to that there was no reply.

    Still no reply - classic!

    My inlaws have a unique way of mispronoucing words (which I'll try and put across here... in writing).

    Nachos (Nar-choes) get pronouced (Natch-oss)...

    So there we are at dinner and the Aunt in law mentions the "Natch-oss" and she quite likes them - I asked if we should get "Nar-Choes" to go with them - so she asked around to see if anyone else would mind.

    The scary part is the Mother-in-law thought it'd be nice to get both while everyone else (like... 8 of us) sat in stunned silence.

    I didn't have th heart to explain that she'd made a dick of herself, and her sister in front of everyone, and my feeble attempt to highlight her mispronunciation actually backfired into a now legendary comment

    Scary - tres scary!

    The same mother-in-sin also has a mis-pronunciation where a large potato chip gets confused with the rapid lifting of underwear

    I found that because the pressure plate is over to the right, you only get half the bike clean.
    My mate thought it looked pretty funny though.

    My parents can't say wedges, they say wedgies - very funny when they ask for a scoop of wedgies......

    On a loosely connected matter...

    Saw a few guys on tourers in Bulls last weekend who were dolled up in wet weather gear etc... cowered in the car wash for shelter having a smoke.

    Pansies..
