My money is on it failing. I have been following its construction on YouTube for ages. It looks like hundreds of dustbins riveted together.

In this instance not a surprise. I was in Florida at Cocoa Beach back in the 90's to watch a Shuttle launch - they aborted the launch at three seconds - very disappointing - did see one some years later.

That's a very telling statement Steve, it just epitomises my 6 years at Senior School

He was going to call you this morning but his phone battery was flat.
