After some close inspection, the Cardinals all agreed that it was white smoke, and that a new Pope had been chosen.

"When we told you that for the purposes of the exercise, the runway was to be considered blown up and you were to use your initiative, we meant you to divert to another suitable airfield."

In a previous life Fowler when claiming a kill would celebrate by sniffing the white powder. (Only works if you are a Liverpool fan )

Well, after due considerations... the winner is c52 with "that stopped in a couple of hundred metres, Order top quality turf for our aircraft carrier", honourable mentions to treadigraph and nutloose for mentioning big boobies underpowered french engines, and Winkle Brown, but not all at the same time.

Now, fresh from my roof the CST is heading for c52

The site has changed and I can't use a URL to the chosen image - where it says "paste a file URL" I can paste it in, but it is immediately overwritten by "paste a file URL" again.

It's the same with Firefox & Chrome.

Post the URL here and put [img] in front of the address and [/img] at the end of it and try that, failing that just paste the URL and I will see if I can do anything
