ARGH  KE-JET  it is the most formidable dragon that ye shall find under any car bonnet.   and is the source of meany a nightmare.


TOP KE-JET TIP :    after carefully removing the dragon place it carefully in sutable storage,   the most sutable storage found to date is green and with two wheels and a lid.   it's highly recomended  that said storeage vessel containg the dragon is then wheeled out of the way.  just outside the frount gate is a location prefered by most.
