Talk:Bowser (tanker)

Comments
The reference to England is not very clear as it then goes on to say it's British English. Don't they use the term in Scotland, Wales and Ireland?

A general search on the Internet shows that the term Bowser has been in use to describe a water container prior to July 2007!

ps: I live in Gloucestershire and am currently getting my water from a Bowser (even though I didn't know what they were called prior to this) !!

 * I think it needs to be a bit clearer in terms of a bowser being the trailer part of the tanker in Britain or a very small tanker. Where as a tanker is a large goods vehicle (lorry/truck) with an attached tank or the tractor and trailer unit combined. 2A00:23C8:A6C7:8101:68E8:320:E1E7:8CC2 (talk) 18:34, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

Bowser (aviation) needs to be merged here, I think. Cruftbane 10:11, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
