"And to park it, we simply fly so that the pointy end of the stick ends up in one of the little holes you see in the concrete blocks."

There was a Naval version, but development was abandoned because the crew kept falling off. Inability to clench buttocks was determined to be the reason.

After launching from the top of the wall, Biff and Sparky are about to discover that, unlike in the movies, gravity wins every time.

Very well, judgement hay is here. Some excellent entries that had me spluttering over my keyboard.

In no particular order, ...
the "Less is More" award goes to Nutty, for "Broom broom". Nutty also wins the Germaine Greer cosmetic surgery voucher for "It's not as easy as the women make out, but I hear they use liposuction"

c52 takes the Sussex Police Golden Truncheon for "Bet you $50 we can fly round Gatwick for 24 hours or more without anyone stopping us."

...and the winner is (drum roll) Buster Hyman, with "Yes, it was all fine & dandy as a joke amongst the lads...until Trump approved funding for further development!"

Even as we speak, the Danny-CST is sweeping around the globe to you, Buster, Go for it.

Cheers Hydromet! Hopefully it arrives, unlike my online order that went missing on Christmas Eve...

Anyway, and no for something completely different...


* Extra points if you can guess what I'm thinking for a Caption!
