TR, Honoured I'm sure.

Not sure how to post pictures, or links for that matter, so here goes by trial and error. If I get it wrong its the new James Bond riding a RM's rib bareback into HMS President posted on the MOD news website:

Here it is




And one for starters:

Cox'n to 007(desig) - If you need it, I think you'll find it in your left leg pocket Sir.

Capt Jenny Blank excitedly snapped this picture from Sainsbury's riverside car park, and was all hot and flustered for the rest of that day.

Unfortunately, Bond's actual words were censored by the MOD website.....

Just wondered which part of a Rigid Raider is Inflatable (RIB – Rigid Inflatable Boat) ?

The photo journo was having The Devil's own job trying to stop Cpl Bloggs grabbing his family jewels. "Do I drop the camera and miss this sensational World Exclusive pic, or do I just clobber him with it?"

It had been a while but Bond was certain this turned in to a Lotus Esprit last time...and with a considerably better looking companion too.

Bad taste warning RED:


In the full glare of the world's press, an embarassed photographer discovers that Priapus Involens (Diesel Dick or Convoy Cock) is not just a land-based military phenomenon.

As a mark of respect to his hosts - the new Bond actor decided to turn his face the same colour as their berets.

or


The new Bond movie just wasn't the same - now that the Health and Safety bridage had thier hands on it. Bond had to wear a Lifejacket on his boat, drive a car with airbags and even wear a condom while shagging Moneypenny

or

Kevin the photographic scientist had a bit of a surprise when the time machine he'd invented dropped him slap bang in the middle of London 2005 - he wasn't exactly sure what was going on, but he knew he didn't quite fit in!

As soon as the photographer left, the real meaning of a "Royal Marines Bonding Session" was to become all too clear to Bloggs....

Comrade Berria enjoyed the day out by the river

(you'll have to think about that one)


The dogem boats had seemed a good idea at the time, but now, as he gazed fearfully at the conductor rising above him...


The two in jungle camoflage only wished they had read the memo more carefully and had chosen, like their twenty nine comrades...the water pattern.

Meanwhile the twenty nine secretive comrades smirked inwardly, enjoying their trip on the thirty three man boat. (I think I have to work on that one a little)


The mayor of London tries out the new city watercraft and finally gets to wear the waterproof chain of office.


"Come in number WEE your time is up."
"We don't have a number WEE"
"Are you having trouble number 33M?"


As the unmistakable stench of rotten fish assailed his nostrils, he suddenly remembered where he had left the pistol.

Come on chaps, your flagging with this caption picture, so I thought I'd keep it going a bit longer

Headline: CHINOOK TRIALS PLAGUED

Watching as their colleagues' disasterous Chinook F16 heavylift trial ends in a smoking heap in the field opposite, a combined JATEU/SBS team show some apprehension as they continue with the Chinook underway heli-dispatch trial for the Rigid Raider.

With the excitement of being on the same boat as Bond and the camera in his right hand, the photographer had no choice but to play 'left handed' for once hoping the no-one was watching him.

Heartily sick of seeing photos of George W. Bush on that aircraft carrier, Tony Blair attempted to stage something similar with what was left of the British Armed Forces.

Mishter Bond: "Look! there'sh the Prime Minishter in the water, breathing his lasht!"

Photographer: "Should we go for high-contrast fujicolor, or stick with with the classic simplicity of black and white?"

Mishter Bond: "I'd shtick with black and white, shod the scheister!"

Marines: "We're with you, Sir."

[Shorry about the shpelling but there was only ever one real Jamesh Bond ]

Sorry, one last one from me before I go back and judge the winner from the rest of you. Here is the full, unabridged, uncensored version of my last post:

Consumed with an exquisite sense of anticipation, her weapon of choice held comfortably in one hand, just as Q had shown her a thousand times before; in the other her trusty Hasselblad. She was oblivious to devious actions of her arch enemy, the dastardly Doctor FJJP, who was about to scuttle her ambitions for ever. Aircrew shades disguised his treacherous, holier-than-thou eyes as his left hand hovered over the bung. But for Alice, her moment had come as her first screen words raced around in her mind; words that would launch her to the heights of superstardom alongside the likes of Kidman, Zeta-Jones, Sterling and not forgetting Doris NacNob. She held her breath for a moment, savouring the first of what she knew would be a spine-quaking multiple climax; and then from behind the false camera she breathed the immortal words......
