Two nations divided by a common language


Giant Tioga

Over here SO many people have RVs – recreational vehicles. Otherwise known as shed draggers. This has never made any sense to me as they are ugly and HUGE and the cost of driving one around has to be more than petrol for a car + the cost of a nice hotel (and the RV parks seem to be a) pikey magnets and b) always in the most horrible locations.

Anyway – I was riding around recently when I spotted the name of a particularly common brand. I almost fell off the bike. It turns out that a large proportion of Americans drive around in giant Tiogas. Hilarious.

On a sort of related note – this made me laugh out loud – there’s nothing funnier than a government office taking itself too seriously: From the Register “UK Office of Government Commerce Cracks one off”
