sweet mate nice one! imagine that coming up behind you, you'd soon get out of the way!Image

"Understeer" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"Oversteer" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"Horsepower" is how fast you hit the fence.
"Torque" is how far you take the fence with you.

lol. Mark mentioned he had too many projects on the go, one of which was aviaries. I've always fancied building one and filling it with Budgies that I could train in the art of hawking.
