Two tots of rum and the stirrup pump in my day. And try to sound grateful afterwards.
Speaking of which, there's a stirrup pump in the hangar..Please don't give Battert any ideas.
Plus any medical use it might sting, just don't smoke near it for gods sake.
I wouldn't pinch any fuel out of those buggers. The Lagonda will run quite happily on it, I don't think the TVR would be too chuffed though.
