So it's funny story time in Vulcania!

Early days at BD with the Mk1 - probably XA-892. Preparing for a long haul trying to make the NBS black boxes compatible I ordered in-flight meals for delivery to the aircraft. They came nicely arranged on a huge silver salver as though for a mess party. There was no way to get the salver through the entrance door without spilling all the goodies and if we could there was no where to stow the thing.

Great big eyes on the messing staff when we showed them our intended dining rooms and they were so disappointed when someone produced some sick bags into which we transferred their handiwork.
