The potato's are now in the maintenance & repair section of the on-line store.($3.50)
     Now to get the potato through the pipe you are going to need a woman with a lot of hot air to blow it through the pipe. You must find you own.  Those are not for sale in the store.

I wonder, if you use a turnip instead, will that void your warranty? I am sure a rutabaga would.

Due to the expense of shipping a potato, and possible spoilage involved, perhapd this would work:

It all depends on the potato sucking woman? The 2 1/2 inch or the  65mil  would be ok.

Only trouble is the last 20 yrs worth of Harley's don't sound like Harley's.
If you want a good potato you have to go back at least to the Shovel's.

Rather have one that could suck start a B52 actually.

Suck belongs to the Intake stroke.    Is kinda crude referring to a women as a suck person.   I've known a lot of men who suck..........dg

This is getting very American, I can hardly understand the lingo . I dont know what suck--dg is or means --i think a B--49--what was it? is a bomber thing.


    And to be perfectly honest I am not 100% sure we are talking about an actual potato??

   Oh Im so confused ???

     Im just going down the frog for a few pigs in the battle cruiser , then  a ruby murray with the trouble an the pan lids.

      How do you like it?

All right Clamp, you are close yes the B52 is a bomber a big f--ing bomber and if you can find a girl to suck start it, I believe you had the proper image already.  Brits/Americans don't think that much differently.  Now where the heck is that potato?

SEPTIC TRANSLATION (Translation for the septic tanks : yanks)
frog (and toad) : road
pigs (pig's ear)  : beer
battle cruiser : boozer
ruby murray : curry
trouble (and strife): wife
pan lids : kids

But of course, that's only if his haddock & bloater (motor, i.e. motorcar) is running, and he's got his hairy bum's (mums) permission... and if he has enough bread & honey (money) and if his china plates (mates) won't buy him another pig to begin with.

I suspect he was elephant, anyway. Elephant (trunk) : drunk.

I know this stuff because a china of mine's from London....

In Ireland we told Kerry jokes (County Kerry). Like the Jutland Danes tell jokes about Ostland Danes. Everyone has to have someone to make fun of.
