What's that word you use? piking? piked? I don't remember :'(
I've never heard of that word.

I try to Americanise my posts but sometimes an Aussie or Brit one gets through the net.
Piking out means 'whimp out' or 'back down' in that context.
There are some funny differences in our uses of English.
The funniest is the word 'fanny'. To americans it means butt. In Australia and Britain , 'fanny' is slang for vagina! There have been some hysterical moments when after a long and uncomfortable journey an American female tourist starts up at full volume about how sore her 'fanny' is. :::D

Quick slap on a cork hat, and your laughing gear around a cold one :::D :::D

It's OK. I take two widgety grubs and call the Doc in the morning.
