Where do you live that kebab shops deliver by car instead of by bike or moped?

Sure, but gas is expensive and margins are small on food. The weather here in the Netherlands is very similar and absolutely no one delivers by car. Way to slow and expensive.

He’s English it seems. I guess when it’s wet for 3/4 of a year the moped isn’t the preferred choice for delivery drivers.

Are you made of sugar?
I’m Dutch, the weather here is at least as bad as it is in the UK. Almost every food delivery is done on (e-)bikes, with the occasional moped.

“are you made of sugar?” Is how I’m going to question the fortitude of people from now on
BorgDrone@lemmy.one 1 year ago
It’s commonly used by mom’s all across the Netherlands when their kids don’t want to bike to school in the rain. (Sugar dissolves in water, so it’s basically saying: you can handle a little water, you won’t melt).

Doesn’t really matter, since I’m not an English delivery driver lol

Did you know you can seat two people on a moped, even with a delivery box attached?

Getting cozy with the delivery driver.

Nothing wrong with a bit more warmth on a cold night.
