Ok as I had my go and simply put this up to get the ball rolling again, or is that toppling? I suggest one of you does the honour and scores it

Volunteer step forward..

Pity no score for the "Jaguar picture" competition - some interesting suggestions.

Yep, I've sent him pm's but not got a response, open to suggestions. I suppose someone else could score it for him?

Maybe those who entered the Jag pic could take a vote on the best one, say whoever gets the most votes by 1900z tomorrow takes the honours?

My vote would go to Fox3WheresMyBanana with,

Tennessee Williams' classic is remade as "Cat on a Hot Tin Runway"

Just an idea as its a nice picture with some good entry's!

You're very kind. I feel morally obliged to vote for someone else
My winner is...

ACW599 with
"Yes, it's a very good lead-in trainer for the Chipmunk"

My apologies all, I was away watching a cricket match that I don't really think you will wish to discuss

Results of the Jaguar Pic as follows.... Some of them were beauties but these are my favourites.

1st Place

CoffmanStarter.

I want my Lightning back
2nd Place

Buster Hyman.

Resized to help
Nope...still can't land it!
3rd Place

Nutloose.

"Excuse me mister, why do they have a Saint on the tail?"
"Because they need the patience of one to get it airborne son"
Honourable mentions to...


SASless.

"Bloggs....one does the Field Sobriety Test BEFORE getting into the aircraft!"

Dan Gerous.

Your supposed to use the curvature of the Earth, not fall off the side.

and

FinelyChopped

(In the dulcet tones of Sir David Attenborough) "Here we see the extremely rare Saints Jaguar marking its territory."

Well done to all.
