One day, we are all going to be swallowed by a big black hole. Paddy thought he had better get some practice in.

Bloggs had counted the rivets once already, but apparently he'd missed a couple. Not this time!

Result time....

Some notable efforts, Big Pistons' "see the world" Penny Washers "One day we are going to be swallowed"

But the winner is....


















racedo! "Nope, still reckon the Wrens Arse was bigger". Gets my vote for the mental imagery alone.

Over to you racedo

Roadtest Report:

"Handles like a Harley, prone to tank-slappers at anything over 10mph. Stopping at traffic lights it has a tendency to fall over but it is ideal for clearing away the lycra-clad lemmings ".

Recently released documents have revealed that a British intelligence plan to use Stephen Hawking as a spy in order to infiltrate the German armoured divisions was somewhat flawed. When Hawking saw the spending wastage it piqued his interest in blackholes...the rest, as they say, is history.

Fritz was certain that now the stabilizers had been removed, he'd be able to catch up with those 'boy racers' from the Luftwaffe!

And you thought flat panel stealth was a new development. Even the propulsion pedal system is low radar return.

Note the wide track batcyle tires !!

Fritz got the job because no-one else in the regiment was of the correct calibre. Or, to be honest, of sufficient length.
