Question Boeing and RR combine to bomb the Scottish

Anybody heard about a B757 losing an engine or part there of. I think it was out of Glasgow after/during take-off.

If they're all like some that I know, the Scottish are usually bombed half the time without help from Boeing & RR :

In response to the first post...no sorry I haven't heard anything. In response to the others.....Us Scots do find it very amusing, when our dear neighbours try to imitate us! If only they knew............

Oops !!! Didn't mean to start celtic bashing

Apparently, a B767 lost a bit of its engine at GLA last night. Just wondering who and when. Must be a wind-up then
