    Dung Beetle

    Bet this goes like tulip.

    Guy Fawkes - "The last man to enter Parliament with honourable intentions."

    That's a coincidence. For last night I was reading Aristophanes' Peace, in which the protagonist rides to heaven on a giant dung beetle.

      Maybe instead of "car" they should call it a "scarab"

      especially as it sounds like it was designed by an "arab"

      hang on - someone's nicked my coat!

        "Dung beetle" was adequately amusing.

        70 houses to run a car for a year @ 10,000 miles. 70 * 2.2 people per house * 365 (1 deposit daily) = 56,210 poohs. So that's 10,000 / 56,210 = 0.178 miles per pooh. Or 65 miles per person-pooh years.
