P-51 Mustang "Betty Jane" at Morgantown, WV, 2011. That engine was something to hear. Shot with a slow old mobile phone, which didn't come close to stopping the prop! — #avgeeks

Gleaming P-51 on ramp, four-blade prop seemingly bent by speed, low mountains beyond, cloudy sky above.

Well in that case, I have an important question, a friend has overhead power lines right past the end of his Garden.. Is he safe reading in his garden, should he ban all **Products** from the upper floors, or just on the safe side, not climb a tree? Especially as his garden has no trees?

Skeggy is sort of OK, but its the home of Butlins holiday camp, so to be avoided at all times during holiday season. I have family in East Anglia, there are some far better seaside resorts without the holiday camp crowd attitude down there, and its a tad warmer as well if you are out-of-season.
