"So, if it's perfectly safe without body armour, why do we need you guys?"

OR

"...and you're sure I'm not getting special treatment?"
"No Sir. We've invited every PM to ride the open top landy with no body armour"

Your target for tonight will be Sally Berk-Cow - blowsy blonde creature with a mania for self-publicity. Make sure you can differentiate between her and Boris J.

Apols all - a very short-notice tasking arose. Judging will commence when the third beer has been poured

Right - the beer's been sorted, now for the real work:

In joint third place:

Buster Hyman with:

PM: "That's right. The danger was palpable...I'll admit it, I was scared that something might happen. I mean, Pippas arse was right there...you could almost reach out & grab it...hmmm...So, what do you chaps do?"

and

Fox3WheresMyBanana with

"...and you're sure I'm not getting special treatment?"
"No Sir. We've invited every PM to ride the open top landy with no body armour"

In second place:

Rather be Gardening with:

Your target for tonight will be Sally Berk-Cow - blowsy blonde creature with a mania for self-publicity. Make sure you can differentiate between her and Boris J.

But taking the honours this week it is:

Buster Hyman with:

PM visits White Hart Lane



Take it away BH.

Thought the idea was to pick the funniest suggestion - not the one who bought you the beer...

Cannot agree more, sorry it wasn't that funny Buster, a lot of others (and not mine) are, and to simply gazump the thread in the first place because you started it wasn't cool either airborne_artist, there was a clear winner and 2 days in is not a long enough time to allow him to respond without a caveat................

Ouch.

Well, seeing you missed your turn Squeaker, why don't you pop a picture up, lest this fun thread degenerate into full blown conflict?

Mmmm.....we've got a proper riot on our hands, with full blown thread-looting of the most abhorrent kind. If abuse of power is proved then clearly this is a case where the Mods should lock up the culprit and throw away the key, unless of course the culprit disagrees, in which case they should be let off.
