Careful now Ananotherone! I might be on the other side of the Atlantic at the moment but I'm keeping a close eye on the potential outing opportunities!!

UR.

Aren't you meant to be on holiday? Surely you can take a break from your outing duties, after all I'm not going anywhere for the time being.

Buzz. Those wheels you were after for Thunderbird 4 are on a T reg. Barchetta LE in G&R Harris, Chichester. They are spoked not telephone dial. Don't know any more details.

By the way, did you get your collar felt on the way home on Sunday night? There was a speed trap hiding in the quarry entrance - an unmarked blue Omega, with a hair-dryer sticking out of the window. Well hidden, the only reason I saw it was because a well meaning fellow citizen flashed me. I doubt they would have accepted the excuse that the frozen pizzas were defrosting in the back....

Hey guys the Buzzster is back! Let the fun commence

Concrete/PVG/AD (you are not fooling anybody!)
one of these lonely, lonely nights!

Annanutherone
Now that the team is fully back you ARE on borrowed time buddy!

Cheerio
Another man of infinite taste (yellow fiat owner) joins the fray! Nah had a fellow yellow cinq flash me to warn of the evil bar stewards. Getting a bit predictable these days, the straight ain't no fun anymore. Have to wait for the twisties to hoof it!

When is the dedicated Emirates service starting?


I've been hearing all these rumours you see.


[Edited to make me look cleverer than I am. In reality thanks for this goes to URno1 crawl crawl etc]


I'm not going to get away with this for very much longer.

Enjoying your last remaining days of anonimity, Annanotherone? Anyway shouldn't it be Emirates we need to start the direct flights instead of Gulf Air? They already fly from LL, KK, CC and BB so loadsa connections for us!

You may say I'm well informed on these matters, I couldn't possibly comment...

I'm with buzz re. the plod thing.

You get away with far worse behaviour in the bends than you ever could dream of on the more direct bits of road.

As for the hairdryer thingy, I may be able to help you on that one..

Outed. Bugger.

Why can't I keep my big mouth shut?

I might have been looking at a couple of days grace, but no more, such is the tenacity of the B watch outing team.

By the way team, concentrate your efforts into:-
A) Outing Father Dougal or
B) Outing the next departure for Dubai(!)

Ah Mr L I presume! Tough luck matey boy, better luck next time you try to use yet another name

A)The latest rumour for departure is.... now that would be telling!!
B)Give it a shot but he hasn't given us much to work on. What do you reckon NO1?

Bit of a late post, Buzz. You weren't even on a night shift!

So, the B Watch outing team strike again. It is becoming far to one sided so we'll have to introduce some form of handicap system to try and slow you down. Answers on a postcard to the usual address (whatever that may be!)

I wasn't even present for this outing having just arrived back from a quick visit to the North East of England! (Start the rumours now)

100 posts then Buzz - congrats.

So the penguins are migrating south from Zebra. Is there something you'd like to tell uss No. 1?

Puddleglum,
Don't wish to be pedantic about this old bean, but penguins are southern hemisphere birds and don't tend to migrate south. Now if you had cited as your example Sterna Paradisaea, the Artic Tern, I would have been much more impressed!

Time to brush up on your natural history, methinks!

101 and not out!

So pedantic Mr. Lightyear! As I understand, it doesn't matter if you're a penguin or a polar bear as long as you have a yellow book you can get a job at ISZ.

I thought the great ape was at Cardiff!

Well, we've managed to get this thread onto its 10th page now. How much longer can we keep the unofficial ice station zebra chat page going?

Matt Spartou, OK I'll bite, you reel me in!

I think you understand wrong, dear boy. We wouldn't have a penguin in the ops room they stink of fish and polar bears have absolutely no manners. Which one are you?

I am sorry to inform you all that I shall be taking no further part in PPruNe postings. I will be looking in from the sidelines until I feel ready to begin causing the customary problems to the B watch outing team.

It's been a slice
