Seems to have gone quiet, so

an honourable (and topical) 3rd place to:

Buster Hyman
"Once again, Gaddafi's idea to get around the NFZ hit a brick wall...."

A close second to:

ACW599
"The acceptance test for the new accelerometer installation was quite demanding."

But the winner is:

Rather be Gardening
"Chiefy was getting a bit bored with winding in the cable of the RHAG, sir. Just his little joke."

Over to you, Sir!

No-one had remembered to pack the bass drums prior to leaving base. So, in a desparate bid to avoid further embarassment, the entire drum section attempted to disguise themselves by using joke 'stick-on-beards' during the actual parade.

In a final desperate ploy, Gadaffi's elite Carpentry Guards headed for the front line. They were going to build the smartest damn barricade in history, with nice rococco detailing.

Whilst commendably enthusiastic, the new VGS CO had a rather peculiar attitude to man-management which did not go down well with the older A2s.

Finally...photographic proof that suggests that genetic scientists at the University of Havana, have indeed been experimenting on local Cuban lumberjacks, in a bid to finally perfect the human cloning of Fidel Castro.
