No Sir, if you're smoking a pipe you don't have to wear a cap, it's in KR's, but Scroggins over there is on a fizzer.

Biggles' plan to use gear mounted wire cutters to disrupt enemy telephone communications had, quite literally, hit a snag.

Hoskins is informed by his instructor that the brief for his cross country to simply "follow the lines on the map" was not meant to be taken literally.

Trials of the RFC's new "Telegraph Pole" pattern camouflage proved a roaring success when several staff officers completely failed to see the aircraft until LAC Bloggs showed them where it was.

OK, the jury has deliberated and chosen........lots of "line" puns, but.....these are the choices.

Wensleydale as runner up for "The first experiment in Fly By Wire?" and also an honorable mention for "What do we do now? Call a let?"

But the CST this time goes to Buster Hyman with:
"Admiral Halsey. You know how you had that idea about Naval air power but couldn't figure out how to land one on a ship?...."

Aww cheers Andy.

I've just started my shift so won't get a piccy up for some time sorry. If Wensley's able to pop one up, that'd be great otherwise I'll get a piccy up later tonight.
