Nope? But I was thinking more along the lines of a large character played by Mike Myers...

Who makes those mpats ? I might have to invest in one for myself.

A quick google has turned up a couple of negative results, but plenty of others explaining that they need a bit of fettling and some tuning to run spot on.

Also a vid of a bloke using one in an RC plane, went like the proverbial stink!

Nearby to me there are a small shop which produces them.
See a small plane on a fair flying. Loud!

I'm sorry but the catalog is in Italian only.

I'm with Farage, nothing good ever came out of brussels, including sprouts..........the work of the devil.

The only problem with sprouts is that 95% of people don't know how to cook them. They end up overcooked, mushy and bitter so it is little wonder. All they need is steaming for a few minutes and if done right will still be crisp. Gorgeous!

What is the difference between spouts and bogies?

Heretic!
A mushy sprout is a joy to behold, it should just manage to hold its shape on a fork till it hits your mouth where it should dissolve into a mass of sprouty goodness.

You can not children to eat sprouts.

We used to have to put them on in about October to suit my in laws. Had to pass the splat test! I like them crunchy personally. Each to there own. Apparently there is some chemical in them that 50% of the population can't taste that's is very sour. That explains the either love or hate thing. Their was a scientific analysis done a few years ago, probably cost millions that discovered this, they just found out half like them & half hate them. Waste of money as usual

Or better still eat them raw, delicious! When I'm preparing them a surprising number don't make it into the pan.

We had sprouts with chestnuts and pancetta. Tasted nice but the whole house smells of my farts now. So bad that even I'm gagging.
I got up for a pee during the night (those gift wrapped beers working their way through me.) I'm always considerate to the wife and try to be quiet as the bathroom is next to our bedroom. I aim at the side of the bowl as well. Too bad I let rip as my bladder relaxed. It sounded like a brass band. Woke her up with it.

Did she know they were your favourites or did you have to drop a hint?

Put a sprout on it and you get a chemical weapon, have large amount of oil near by and you will get "Liberation" and "Freedom" care of Uncle Sam.

We had some "posh" iteration of quiche lorraine last week, very nice...except it gave me gas....and chemical weapons grade gas...which when I let rip while half asleep scared the hades out of my wife...she thought some bison sized creature had roared...

Nah, its when you blow yourself out of the bed like a loose jet engine you have to start worrying !

I had sprouts, I think someone is burning rubber in the house now.
