Better than a pair of shoes, laces tied together hanging over a telegraph wire.

One of the Half Man Half Biscuit album covers has a photo of a tyre round a lamp post on it.

I will be using the word ninks as often as possible to resurrect its everyday useage in the wider society.
Hoying tyres over lamp posts is ninks.
