Will power!

So...there are three old car wrecks lying about the place and for a while Will has been saying that he is going to try and drive them down the hill. I have humoured him not thinking for one second that it was possible.He bought a little 12v air compressor to pump up the tyres which ran off Jaxy's motor. Amazingly all the tyres on Beige Beauty pumped up and were not punctured. Today on the way back from a few hours of bleaching at the Cheese Factory he went to the dump under the illusion of getting rid of our recycling but came back with two more car batteries.He fitted one to Beige Beauty, put in some petrol and turned her over. I was not surprised to see that she did not start. Will, undaunted brought in Roxy to try and jump start Beige Beauty by connecting her up to Roxy's battery.The engine tried to turn over but would just not start and then Will remembered that Beige Beauty had a choke which he had forgotten about. He pulled the choke out and Beige Beauty spluttered into life.I was utterly gobsmacked! He reckons the car has been rusting there since 2005 perhaps even before!He then only went and drove it down the hill to park it beside our Garth Lane entrance ready for someone to come and take it away.He is now determined to get Trogdor the Burninator down there too. He has already fitted a tyre where the last one was crushed by a collision with a rock and pumped up all the tyres. It would appear that someone, in our absence, has been and removed the radiator and water pump so this removal might just be a little more tricky.We now have to wait until Saturday for the attempt as tomorrow he will be up to his elbows in cheese!
