But I probably should not have celebrated the arrival of good weather by going to the bookstore....

People upset by the "shag bus" should console themselves that the same thing happens to elite athletes in the Tour de France- they call it the "broom van". It even has a broom on the roof.

Around here, the term is "sag wagon." Same function, though.

Also you should *never* use the term "shag bus" in the UK, due to the British meaning of the word "shag".
