We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about.

I think the shop was in Ipswich but she was the member for the electorate of Oxley.

No doubt some Burn(t)out ute driver will correct me though

^ GOMA has some awesome displays.

We always visit the Ipswich Gallery when it is school holidays time.
I liked the F111 exhibit.

Thanks for the heads up.
