Whichever way you look at it the Tongan Navy's gross tonnage has seen a huge increase.

The Tongan Armed Forces athletics team had made the basic error of watching the box set of "The Great British Bake Off" back to back!

"Full speed ahead, Captain!"
"We already are, sir."
"But we're barely moving. How come?"
"Well, ahem....let me show you the Officer's mess. Shall we?"

I think this one has run out of steam, now

A special Mention-in-Despatches to SATCOS WHIPPING BOY for the caption:

Commander - "Why are we wearing these ridiculous safety goggles?"

Admiral - " I am glad you ask, but if your tunic buttons get stressed any more they could easily take someone's eye out; it happened to Nelson".


and the winner is CoffmanStarter for a genuine laugh-out-loud moment with:

Thank you all for your excellent responses.

Over to you, sir.

Many thanks FT6

I've had my fair share of 'wins' recently ... So I'd like someone else to have a go if that's OK

SATCO ... Would you like to put one up mate ?

Best ...

Coff.

PS. PM sent to SATCO
