Nigel:

What the hell is a Humber Super Snipe?   The only "Snipe" that I am familiar
with are the "Snipes" that I was taken to hunt in the boy scouts.

<< I've seen photographers get within 10 metres of bison, thinking that the
 huge beasts are plodding and slow.  They aren't distance runners, but for
 short sprints the 1000kg animals can reach 45kph or so.  Quite similar to
 the Humber Super Snipe my uncle used to drive.
