TomTom's early prototype worked well but was somewhat impractical.

or:

The revolutionary "I-Plod" really transformed mobile music in the early 1950s.

On reflection, CinC decided that he if had a horse rather than a train - fewer would be able to get off.

Never mind the batteries, have you seen how much hay and carrots this thing needs?

The UOR for a vehicle with a bit more 'horse-power' was met with some disappointment by the Royal Signals.

"Sorry, sarge, there's nothing in the manual about where to insert the SIM card -- any ideas?"

or:

"Broadsword calling Danny Boy, over".

or:

"I still say it's not a viable replacement for a Nimrod R1, even if it is cheaper".

With things being quiet at the moment, the horse wondered if the chaps fancied a game of "BUCKAROO"

Time for some judging:

Highly commended ACW599 with a topical:
"Sir, the Mode S squitters show it's definitely a Backfire and he's heading for Hull".
But horse's expression is surely thinking:

Runner up Brickhistory with:
Horse: "Stepping stone for the Army polo team, my ass..."
Winner by a short head ShyTorque with:
It's from the horse, sir.

He's just PVR'd!
It's all your's ShyTorque

Cessna's post-war "The Whistler" was not a commercial success.

Bloggs's intake of recreational drugs had reached such a level that seeing lift pixies was a regular occurrence.

Michael O'Leary was unconcerned by industry criticism of Ryanair's new budget airline seating.
