Ah yeah, course you need to wash it first, swings and roundabouts

I'd hate the thought of any of my cars stood up unprotected from the elements - I know it sounds silly, but seriously if you want a clean empty drum for transporting water I'll send you one

if i think i know where your garage is mate, i wouldnt even try it theres only 1 road in and 1 road out isnt there???

knowing MY luck, i would probably get done by a traffic car TBH.

mind you, not many traffic cars go in and out of that station do they? only panda shit.

cheers mike - will let you know but I may just end up washing it where it is as Zo has kindly offered to send me a big enough bucket

altho would prefer to jet wash it first so as to get all the crap off.
