Tonkatechie still was unable to complete his airfix kits correctly, having lost his instructions, glued the wrong wings on the Lightning and fixed the Vulcan's nose onto the truck.

Despite their European partners backing out, BAe were relieved that the MoD continued with the contact and ensured the final product was 'sold as seen'.

The 'beauty queen' Jordan couldn't attend the parade in person - but she sent a couple of her dildos along to represent her.

True to life, even after the mid air collision, Flt. lt. "Araldite" Bloggs and Cmdr "Superglue" Pratt-Hartley had to be buried in their cockpits as it was impossible to pry their hands from the controls.

Speculation that the Vulcan to the Sky project was a little further behind than publicly admitted rose sharply after its latest run out.

When SAC Pendleton was invited to 'join the RAF, see the world, become a Lightning driver' he expected a bit more excitement than this.

The RAF went for a 'retro' theme for this years Pride parade. However the RN just went for a banner which proudly states that the 'Senior Service Satisfy.'

Hey! Watch where you're swinging that b y handbag!
The chap with the vulcan later blushed at his spelling error - turns out he was the curator of a piece, not peace itself...

Bliar supported his claims that the Iraqi regime posessed WMD with some wholly credible satellite imagery. Later image enhancements, however, proved the invasion of a Soverign nation and an illegal war, may have been in vain.

Despite the South London Air Cadets' determination to set a new Land Speed Record, their driver, Fat Billy Watkins (12), was more than a little worried that the heavy traffic in Croydon might preclude such an attempt.
