Words for today

"Draughted" - this often occurs when joining a motorway and refers to the
annoying draughts caused by looking over one's shoulder and disturbing the
carefully arranged layers of scarves, tubes etc wrapped around your neck.

"RunOver" - this often occurs when joining a motorway and being unable to
look over your shoulder and see an approaching lorry. This can be caused by
excessive scarf tightening to avoid being draughted.

 

Do tell ...


Oh, and there's also

"Hairy Flaps" - A wooly scarf employed to prevent being draughted
which has worked its way loose and causes an annoying vibration on
one's helmet.

 

And "Turning up the wick" when the rain starts to soak down inside
your jacket using your neck-warmer as a conduit, so you need to pull
it up outside.
