    Hi John, my brother wants one… will have to check that lotto entry :)
    Thanks for the tech tips on the picture. You’re going to have to publish a “How this Photo was Created” book pretty soon :) cheers Natascha.

        Ah, these Turbo’s aren’t real Beavers John, nothing compares to the sound of that old rotary engine!

        I think they sound like a Harley Davidson motorcycle when they first start up on a winter morning.
