I onced crossed a Botswana boarder post trailering a Windlass. The Windlass's pylon was folded down, with the engine facing upwards.

I overheard a bystander explaining to another less informed that this is a diesel helicopter.

I used to refer to my late friend, Loffie`s trike as: "The brolly with the lawnmower engine". He just smiled. :D

When I use to race sports 200's they were called plastic pigs and mobile jacuzi's but the Bantam has been called fugly, baberbek and lots more but it flies and some of those okes are having stiff necks from staring at the baber while I look down and smile.
