It is not my invention, either. Everybody here is using this term to describe someone who doesn't own a car and is joining a car owner and share his expenses (fuel, etc.). This is totally different than a hitchhiker, who merely joins without paying anything. I'm definitely having two lifters - we share all the expenses, including fuel, food, etc. “Lifter” is not like hitchhiker. It is not my invention, either.

From my own experience- the train in Katoomba is steeper than the one in HK Dad Oded is right- time to switch to better english- so hitchhicker is the correct word and not your own invention named lifters by you ( “lifter is the cookney shortcut of pocketlifters - or simply= thieves).

English time: lifters = hitchhikers. BTW: how high is that cliff you climbed down ? Is it any good for base jumping ;-) How does the train compare to the one at Jungfra-jock (or how ever the spell this)?
