Caption Competition

Things really went downhill after the Womens' Royal Auxilliary Balloon Corps started designing their own craft, they quickly became known as the 20 Seconders. (With apologies to Blackadder.)

Thanks everybody for the many chuckles!

Time to judge them.

Second runner-up is ehwhatezedoing with:

"NASA budget reduction.
Doesn't stop them sending a craft towards Uranus."

First runner-up is Hempy with:

"Who's been in my wallet???"

And the winner for this one is ZOFO with:

"On his last tour the Pope was somewhat unpleased with his form of transport"

Well done ZOFO, over to you!

Earth Calling Zofo

You've been handed the mantle buddy. This is to get it back up the top and highlight that you may have missed the fact that you are the 'chosen one.'

ZOFO, winning and Brazillians

Listen ZOFO, I understand that you may be down the beauty parlour getting a twin brazillian with the girlfriend. Although I can't imagine you asking the proprietress whether they "wax mens' bottoms". Don't blame me, you raised it!

Get with the program. Once you've had the fleece removed, you are subject to a higher calling. You've bid, you've won, and you must now deliver. Otherwise, you'll be known as "Waxy-bum ZOFO" for as long as this thread keeps going!

Capt. P. Prune was forced to put his carry on in the hold due to security claiming it was over sized. (He was allowed to take his military grade, high power sniper rifle to the cockpit due the specific model not being listed on security's magic list)

or

Capt. P. Prune was ready to shoot the approach.

or

Management's 21st Century updated program also covered the cockpit axe.

Given that LCCs are getting away with blue murder anyway, management decided that the captain ought to have the right to forcefully address complaints about sh*thouse service.
