How to fix a dent with a Hairdryer and Compressed Air

In keeping with the Site,

Car Park Entertainment MTI

Postby leyland » Wed Apr 25, 2007 1:36 pm

Sparkie,
Great idea of getting Tim to wash & shine your car outside the main reception of the Sneem hotel in the french maids dress. Bit like men in tights. Any other clean ideas on the carpark entertainment.
