OK - Results time.....

Honourable Mentions to:

Traffic_Is_Er_Was for "Sailor: Ok, I've got it all rolled out and nice and straight, now what do I do?
Petty Officer: Roll it up again! "

and WeeJeem for "Hey, Jonesie! Jonesie! Hang on a tick! The guy here says that the 'E' in this new EALS system we're fitting is 'E-for-electromagnetic', not 'E-for-elastic'. "
"Gawdammit! You'll be telling me next that we have to take the horses out of the bridle catchers."

The BT and Tesla references all raised a chuckle, but the winner on sheer groan-inducement, is Wensleydale for

"I'm suffering from Hermes".


"Don't you mean Herpes?"


"No - I think I'm a carrier".


Over to you

I will never get on the leaderboard at this rate.
I congratulate Wensleydale, and go and sulk.

NEXT?
