Which one is the kids toy?

Yesterday, my wife cycled 56 miles to collect some stuff from M&S, while
I rode to the office as usual.

The car is stuck on the drive, waiting for a replacement ignition
barrel. You can sit in it, hold the steering wheel and make vroom vroom
noises but that's about all.

Yesterday, my wife drove to work with the air con on, while I drove to
work as usual.

Our granddaughters pushbike is stuck in the garage, awaiting some air in
a tyre. You can sit on it, hold the handlebars & make clank clank
noises, but that's about it.

Were the shops shut or are you waiting for the air to arrive in the
post ?

You should earn a bit more and then you could afford a few decent cars, most
self respecting wives would fit your pushbike where it belongs.

Dave did an estimate for the cost, taking inflation into account, and
realised that there was no way he could afford the job at his prices.
It'll have to be outsourced to a little man he knows in the Shenzhen
Industrial Zone.

So you're a handyman who can't work out how to operate a bike pump? Do you call the AA when your van tyres need more air?
