Gentlemen - results time:

Highly Commended:

Dan Gerous To mis-quote Derek & Clive
"Jump,
you f....ers jump,
into this blanket,
that we are holding,
and you will be ok.
So they jumped,
hit the deck,
broke their f...ing necks,
there was no blanket there.
Laugh we almost shat....."

and ZOFO "Pic 1. With the wife away on det in Iraq, and the lack of creche facilities available on base, Flt Lt Bloggs was left no other option with what to do with young Jimmy."

but tonight's winner is

ZH875 "Members of the RAF pictured messing about with the rod used to shove Mr Bliar up Gee Dubyas backside."

So, step up, ZH, and provide us with our next challenge

Once the CVF IPT had announced their latest solution, the RAF suddenly stopped complaining and took an interest.

The FSL was worried that, when he'd told BAe the new CVF should be, "as safe as a bunker", they'd hadn't quite understood the concept.....

The ship enjoyed a renewed sense of purpose and direction once the long running and bitter neighbourhood dispute between the 2* and the Captain was resolved with the Admiral significantly reducing his 90' Leylandii hedge.

Defence Estates find a neat solution to the disposal of Culdrose's most valuable assets.

Accusations of cheating arose when it was discovered that mysteriously the wind was always behind the Captain as he teed off.
