Roland Posted May 20, 2009 Report Posted May 20, 2009 He won't answer that... have a sneaky suspicion that with a name like that he just want to test and make his BOP happy.

goshawk Posted May 20, 2009 Author Report Posted May 20, 2009 go type in dewlaps look at those go ha ha wicked birds aint they. proper manuvours, cant see them getting nailed by peres with that agility ;D
