Hey, I'll go one further than that. I think they should be tested in
the
proper
procedures for changing a tyre on the highway under severe emergency
conditions.


You spent too much time in England.

Dee:

Which of my behaviours would cause to say that, then?

When my tire

Is that something tired (i.e. lacking in sleep)?

goes flat on the highway,

That means you probably have a puncture.

I call for help.

With your Vodafone mobile, undoubtedly!

It's too dangerous to do this on the side of the road,
alone, at night, in the rain (Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh my). I
couldn't resist!

No problem. All you have to do is make sure you've pulled safely
off the motorway, put out your triangle, then collect the spare,
jack, and lever (pronounced "leever") from the car boot. Hopefully
your wheel nuts won't be corroded. Then, after replacing the flat
tyre with the spare, hopefully you won't be too knackered to
continue with your journey!

At one company I worked for we actually kept a cross-reference sheet of
English versus American terms for interpreting some of our customers
requirements. So at least I know to have a spanner handy for emergencies
like this.

Actually today I was pretty "knackered" just coping with the freeway traffic
here.

Hey Dee, why not just mimeograph the list of Q-codes and and you would
have been perfect copy with whatever nationality you were doing
high-finance with. At least that's what the PCTA tries to pass off as
the truth.

Hi hi!
