Not OT you notice!
Watch the video & what do you think the vee twin engine is? I can't make out

any vertical surfaces. Does anyone know if it actually flew?

my house contents insurance would cover engines but when it came up for
renewal this time I thought I'd ring to check. Confusion!
"Engines - what like spare car engines? Er, well no it's more of a
collection really. Oh yes, we cover collec ...
