A guy turns up at a fancy dress party with a woman on his back.

The host comes up to him and says "So, what have you come dressed as?"

"A tortoise", he replies.

A little confused, the host asks "So who's this?", pointing to the woman on his back.

"That's Michelle!"

Lift it up, get 2 scaffold bars under it one on front one on rear, someone on each corner and lift it up, then sit it on tyres, thats what were doing with my mates escort turbo as he is re-shelling it due to ripping it in half with power
