    Best ..the sewrage systems.

    You can be anywhere and if you need to crimp one off, its into a nice heated cubo, sit on the thunderbox, back her out,press a button and without even saying goodbye she's off and away and you don't have to worry no more.

    Some other dude will take care of her.Away you go free as a breeze with another two pounder taken care of at no cost to your bank balance.


    Great service indeed.
