    I would be jealous, but jealousy is such an ungentlemanly feeling, so I will have to content myself with admiration instead.

      And you let a wee thing like that put you off! A custom made manifold utilising the valley space and maybe longer inlet tracts may have been just the ticket!

        Well, the new gazebo took a battering yesterday, but held up well. It danced around the patio a bit, the wind was that strong, but my makeshift guy ropes kept it within a reasonable range. In fact, it is probably better that it was allowed to move about within the constraints of the guy ropes as fixing it down would probably have caused it more stress from the buffeting of the wind?
