The UK's long national nightmare is over: they finally have an edible elevator

The UK's long national nightmare is over: they finally have an edible "elevator"
Or a "lorry" as they call it.

I can imagine the next Die Hard movie. Terrorists shut off the power in a London high-rise. John McClane, visiting England with his family, is trapped in the lift. There's only one way to stop the bad guys - Bruce Willis has to eat his way free!

  1. Actually mate we call elevators "lifts". Lorries are what you guys call trucks (we also call them wagons). Cheers, Padster :)

  2. I think you missed the joke. It's my running gag that the English call everything a "lorry."

    (You'll note that I used the term "lift" in the next section!)

    I lived in the UK for a bit, and am reasonably familiar with the lingo, or as you call the lingo, "the lorry."
