I imagine a 'Tuk boy' to be a 'tuck boy' - someone you might send to the tuck shop at school to go & buy sweets for you.

I'll have a quarter of penny chews please, some black jacks, fruit salads, ufos & a couple packets of space raiders - whoo hoo old sweets! :D

You can have a 10p tip if you are quick :wink:

And here I was thinking he was a Thai import (half of a Tuk-Tuk driver?)

Well for starters, it sounds kind of demeaning - Like "Water boy" or "Shoe Shine Boy" or just plain "Boy" - and for that matter oddly similar to "Boy George" - but of course, who am i to speak...
