So... What oiled your gears today?

Illegal cropped ears. Not a good sign for breeder and/or owner.

Well done Team Europe.

[Polarbear]

Something to post on the Just Stop Oil Website if they have one or maybe ask Greta if she would like to see the fuel consumption figures.

Just for information for anyone remotly interested. Those piston rods only go to the cross head. There are rods pretty well the same length that go from the crosshead to the crank webs. It's a big motherfucker. Even the ones I sailed on you would stand on the piston crown in the cylinders to measure bore wear. Those you could pretty well have a party in.

How many cornflakes boxes do you need to make the gaskets?

Today I did get a call from Virgin Media, here we go again But for a change they offered me something worthwhile: gigabit broadband, anytime telephone calls and a TV package that includes Netflix so overall I'll probably save a tenner a month over what I'm paying now, which is nice.

Wow they extremely large. Very impressive Engineering to build an engine that big.

I used to be in the Navy many moons ago and the destroyer I was on had some big 16-cylinder diesel engines but nothing on that scale

I wonder why they don't just use Gas Turbines? The energy lost through an engine that size wil be large. Gas turbines would be more efficient. Unless they can't do Gas Turbines that large.

[Nobby the Bastard]

Gas turbines are much more unreliable and inefficient compared.to a huge 2t diesel. Don't confuse power produced for size/weight with efficiency.

wouldnt a huge gas tank on a military ship be a bit dodgy?
