Binky is mentioned in the youtube thread every time a new episode is posted.
BadObsessionMotorsport have posted a few apologies for delays with their new episode. They both sound REALLY busy so hopefully it gets finished.

If you are a reader of Terry Pratchett, Binky is a horse. Death's horse......

Death had enough of wiring the bones of a skeleton horse back together all the time so went for a

John, the next time you have a diesel conversion project lined up, use a tape measure to make sure the engine actually fits first!

:lol:

I see no problem there! ;)
Oh, and I want one of these minis. I've had a quick flick through my little book of rare and limited edition mini
variations but couldn't find that one. Lousy book.
:P
