If two things come to pass, viz, I'm sober and not actually in the pub* tomorrow night, Wednesday evening 13th December, I'll hand down my judgement and pass on the CST then...
*The conditions may not be** mutually exclusive.
** are not likely to be***
***there's no way they will be****
****Hic!

"Were trialling the colours, the red for example does not show up blood stains, we learnt that from the British"

Phew, managed to stay out of the pub tonight, so a quick review of the entries revealed a number of stitch busters with a few skirting dodgy territory…
Special commendation to Wensleydale:
Brian had not got to grips with the Hungryhouse App, and regretted his decision to order a hot Mexican with all the trimmings.
Joint third place and the WHT trophy:
Buster Hyman
The class action against Harvey Weinstein took a dramatic twist...
Ascend Charlie
The jury for the Harvey Weinstein trial has been selected.
Second place and a year’s subscription to Woman’s Own:
ShyTorque
"When you said you were nipping out to get a women's magazine I thought you meant a paperback book about knitting..!"
And the coveted CST is awarded to:
Dan Gerous
"Uniforms", the new collection from House of Klinger
Cheers folks and over to you, Dan…

Um....I love this forum, even though I suck at writing captions...and am not a pilot (cough).
Also I noticed that some non-winners have occasionally posted captions when the winner is unable or unavailable...
And though captionally incompetent, I enjoy collecting oddball photos...
So, if no one else has a submission, would this be suitable for captioning?

This inflation's a bastard when you are on a fixed annuity.
"We were talking about it being filled with hydrogen, and that it's performance meant it was a bit of a bomb, when this Korean chappie with a funny haircut stole the blueprints and ran off, shouting "Death to Amelica" or something!"
Minister....that is not the “Airship” to which I was referring.
