I was going to pitch "Wilf's Revenge" where he gets to pull off......
but I couldn't think of anything that doesn't sound rude :-|


You could always send him after Oliver.

I think konyo was talking about the Opel Kadette. Congratulations on getting Wilf back, I look forward to seeing him restored to his former glory.
