Looks like we will be having the engine games 2011 for those who dare. Anybody up for F1, limbo and bucket stretch.
Hope to give some prizes this year but beers in the bar as usual after the fun.

9 engines now on site, along with one or two other bits. It's quite windy so if you're bringing an awning bring a ratchet strap or two!
