The other day I was kindly minding my own business on the typical double decker buses here in Hong Kong and this sign jumped up and hit me on the head. What the heck is a perambulator? The dictionary even calls this thing “old use” or “old fashioned.” Now as much as I've traveled and been all over the world these many years this was a new one to me. Sounds like something out of a science book or the arch nemesis of the Terminator.
So for you who have kids or just want to sound intelligent feel free to use this very English term. For all you Pramies here is some advice on buying one of these old guys…Pass the pram please!?
