Yes. Sorry.

I meant to finish it yesterday, but it seemed like so much hard work. (four pages to reread )

Seeing as mine are abviously the best captions, I'd just make me the winner, but then I'd have to dig up some more photos etc etc


So without further ado, and in the finest military tradition, the winner is...


...Standby...

Lots of great captions in this week’s competition,



The History Channel accuracy prize winner is:

Darth Nigel for “Not a single WAAF had spotted the fact that "Fido" was a puppet, and a great many had stroked him without realizing just how Lt. Onan was making him move.”


Mentions in dispatches go to:

Speedpig for "You stupid mutt, you've eaten my goggles" AND “The girls had all wished to meet a man who was well hung. By the look of this guy's neck, he certainly had been.”

Darth Nigel for “Now we see how the tradition started of putting the Nav behind the pilot”


A trip round the pattern in the squadron’s last remaining Spitfire goes to:

An Teallach for “It soon became apparent that Tom was not as committed to this 'Ladyboys of Bankok' lark as the rest of the lads.” (happy memories eh AT?)


Tea and biscuits with the Headmaster for linked or multiple captions goes jointly to:

ACW599 for “the airline. His only reservations were that the regularly rostered CSD was a bit of a dog and that the uniform hat was not especially well tailored.”

AND

”By contrast, Scruggs was acutely aware of the erotic appeal of the Virgin cabin-staff trainees in their colourful outfits, although he felt that their frequent ritual obeisance to the cockpit crew was a little unnecessary.”

adr[ for “The infidel had paid the price for penetrating the airspace guarded by the prince's three spell-casting daughters. Driven back forty years in time, the pilot was to finish his days in an asylum, while the nav went on to enjoy a happy and fulfilled life as squadron mascot.”



But following the bonus rule of one caption for both pictures AND because I don’t understand it at all AND because it would obviously be funny if I did understand it AND to give someone other than Darth Nigel or Speedpig a chance for a change, the grand prize of a full rectal exam personally performed by Matron in her most stiffly starched, amply filled white blouse, with the blue serge skirt and sensible shoes in attendance (and don’t forget the snap of the rubber gloves), the winner is:

Old developer with “and the search for the replacement OC Eng continues.”

For those who were interested, this is a pretty good site, but the navigation's not too hot

The second picture was from the ethnic festival from the City of Olympia's web page Phwooooooaaarr!

One of the mentioned captions reminded me of an old Tommy Chong gag, which I was going to adapt. However, I was afraid that the original author would find it tasteless:

"You stupid mutt, you've eaten my goggles," complained the pilot. Last time, it taken almost three days to get them back.

...just in time to be used by the crew of the Enola Gay on that fateful mission. How fortuitous.

It would appear that the thought of a starched Hattie Jaques bearing down on him from behind accompanied by the sharp snap of latex doesn't appeal to Old Developer. Can't imagine why ...

New round

In the absence of Old Developer, here is your next challenge, which also involves an animal in the cockpit!

For a bonus point identify the location.

"On hearing the news of his magnificent victory, Old Developer was heard to mutter 'Home; and don't spare the horses.'."

"...unfortunately, there was a small incident which caused him to miss his slot, though he was still able to keep his appointment with Matron."

"Meanwhile, airborne_artist watched from the background as the whole event unfold in front of him."


===

"The 15th hurdle was always the hardest in the annual Upper Graltonbury Dessage."

===

"The Provost will have something to say about THIS."

===

"As Julian began his slow inexorable tumble over the horses head, he was relieved to know he had made sure he had his CAP TIed ON before the COMPETITION started."

===

"Popsie had one last test before she could be signed off by Guide Horses for the Blind when disaster struck."

This was the first and definitely the very last time Mr Ed volunteered for ejection testing at RAF Halton.
He thought the CO had said "ejaculation"

"say again all before 'below glideslope'"

It had seemed like a good idea in the Mess, taking Wupert and his 'orse up for a flight, till the restless equine had kicked the eject handle.

Even as he sprang into action to save Queen and Country, The Huntsman (England's crimefighting vigilante and only superhero) wondered if being a pilot was the best secret identity.

Or, just to pick on

"It wasn't clear just what Speedpig had been holding in his sweaty mitt, but the horse was clearly upset."
