Not for points Explanation: Toodle is definitely a spelling mistake, the three google results of "toodle about in" suggest nothing but "tootle about in", which means To walk or drive in a leisurely manner (AHD). Let's take the results one by one: 1- "Ironically now I'm stuck with a Corsa, which I hate, and think longingly of the days I had my baby to toodle about in" Corsa is a type of cars-->>,http://images.google.com.eg/images?q=Corsa&hl=ar&btnG=إبحث ف... 2-They toodle about in their flashy Volkswagen beetles. 3-I'm thinking the next time I see her I should offer to go on a ride with her - maybe toodle about in the Portlands Reference: http://www.google.com.eg/search?hl=ar&q=%22toodle+about+in%2... |
