Because calling it 'hood' could easily lead to confusion with the collapsible roof of a convertible, couldn't it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Commander Travis Posted January 20, 2018 #4116 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Would you prefer, in your campaign to have American become the official language of the Uk, petrol to be renamed "gas" while we're at it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auntyseptic Posted January 20, 2018 Author #4117 Share Posted January 20, 2018 For the last three days I have been driven to the very edge of insanity by a beeping sound,at first I couldn't locate the source of it and I thought it was coming from somewhere in my house, then I realised it was my neighbours smoke alarm battery getting low. They appear to be on holiday. At first the "beep,beep, beep, beep. beep's" seemed to be once every 15 minutes or so but they now seem to have increased to once every 30 bloody seconds. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be much more appropriate to burn their house down!! On a serious note, it might be worth contacting the police or the fire brigade on their non-emergency number. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what do you call boots as in foot wear? Do you call them hoods? And how can anyone confuse hood with roof? A roof and a hood are not the same. A hood covers something (like an engine or someone's head from rain) so it makes perfect sense. A roof is always on the top of homes, buildings, garages and yes cars. Now a bonnet? Come on now, just silly. Sounds like a clothing item. And why the left side of the road? That's just daft. Only three countries drive on the left. Tops. Perhaps four but I'm fairly sure it's three. As for gas it is derived from gasoline so it does make sense. We Americans just shortened it from gasoline to gas to get the point across faster. That's all.
