    Worked well, took a less than a minute to adjust compared to all the usual fucking about on them, as for sapping power you wouldn't even notice the amount you'd lose, if any

    A better description is built in the back of Taggarts workshop in Belfast canterbury, by some guy in shorts, jandals and with a beard which was a fire hazard....
    From whatever was lying around the yard at the time, and while all the time cursing a blue streak.
    (Yes, I visited Mo there occasionally)
