Hey Paddy wack, she's way, way to clean under the bonnet and around
the body, get plenty of mud ans such around her so she looks the part,
I bet she cry's at night when you put her to bed in the garage, all tucked up in her duvet, shes crying out for some water, mud, and a few scraches
TUT TUT, its not a show thing PADDY, enjoy it for christ sake.
