Well, I'll be !!

A day with a sunny blue sky.  I was beginning to think you lived under a perpetual cloud based on your other videos.   ;D ;D

The engine did seem to have a rather bad miss?  Hopefully, that was just something that was added by your video camera?

Whatever it was, I'm sure you will sort it out.

Cheers.

Hi Jim and thanks everyone for your kind comments, the engine does not misfire, it was all down to the camera, which does make them sound a bit odd at times. A good side effect is it can pick out pinking sounds from an engine where the naked ear does not hear them, which can be useful  ;)
