David Plowie vs Spready Mercury....council naming new gritters.

stackitsteve

Doncaster council asked for ideas to name their 2 new gritters ahead of the winter.

Gritty McGritFace and Gary Gritter were banned before the suggestions could begin!

The final four were then voted for on twitter:
David Plowie beat Basil Salty, while Spready Mercury lost out to Gritsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Anti-slip Machiney.

The two winners join their other vehicles including Brad Grit, Gritney Spears and Usain Salt

But could Lifers have come up with any better?

Over to you....

David Plowie doesn't work. Bowie is pronounced to rhyme with So(ie) not Ploughie.

I see one of the new Sydney Harbour ferries has been named Ferry McFerryface.

Anyway, how about True Grit?
