SC - Birthdays and Daffy Dills

[The Cheshire Cat]

Having fled to the bush for two weeks of R'n'R, thought I'd ask people who 
know more than I do about utes...

I'm told that you can have either a tray-back ute (all three sides can be 
flipped down) or a style-sided ute (both sides are rigid, back can open); 
bed would be used here in talking 'bout a truck, not a ute - "unless you're 
a yank".

So bed is used for tray by you guys in the US? (Mind you, the tray would get 
a bit of use as a bed at the odd B&S here, too, so in at least one sense the 
terms are interchangable...)

Hey, you have a problem with Brooklyn-esque speaking?

and Mari, it's not a carry tray, it's a bed...

Hey, there's no use in agruing with her about it, I've tried...

I have to go load a UPS in my UTE's carry tray and then, Bob's your Uncle,
I'm off on the road for the day...
