1001 unusual uses for a Disco

I know we all use our Discos for many different things, and I know we already have "What have you done in your Disco today" posts, but how about a post for when you use the Disco in a strange or unusual way...

So let me start with No1........This evening, I decided to assemble Mrs Iggy's little garden retreat, very heavy, especially the roof section, couldn't lift it by myself, then I had a brainwave....let's use the disco and it's clever suspension

Set suspension to lowest setting, hauled roof onto tailgate, lined it up and ran around raised suspension, shut door and ran back and watched it raise the roof 8)

I then had to finish it off myself Thumbs Up

Looking forward to seeing your pics and unusual uses Thumbs Up Iggy/Ieuan

Agreed but only because the RR Classic came out 35 years earlier.

Here’s possibly the most unusual use …… strap a hostage to a Disco.
