Come up with a suitable caption.. The original read "Secretary of State for Defence John Reid enjoys a cup of tea with Brigadier Ed Butler (left) and Colonel John Donnelly (right) during a visit to the Afghan National Army Range."

After his visit to the local Afghan farmers, Dr Reid was wondering why two large bananas had joined him? .................... still, at least they had come with food to help him over the munchies!
or simply,
"Dude ..................... sweet!"

The colonel is saying: No Sir, all the real weapons are in Iraq, but if I point my fingers like this, from a long way off it looks like a pistol!
