Built by farmers? Bullet holes?? Needs a "bit of welding here and there"???? Come on - show some compassion for this Optimist of the Century, supply him with more of whatever substance he's inhaling, tell him what a TID was and then wait for the tinworms to stop holding hands and the whole pile of rust and mud to disintegrate.
On the other hand, surely there must be some Action Group ready to start a Save-the-(alleged)TID campaign?
