Red Arrows to be renamed the Blue Bows
Anyone see Junior Mastermind last night when 11 year old Emily said that when she commands the Red Arrows she is going to re-name them the Blue Bows. Comments?
Surely defence cuts will have stopped them flying by the time she is in any position to influence names. There will be a fleet of Simulators touring the airshows as a more cost effective, and less dangerous, method of show casing flying skills.
Psycho Babble
I'm not sure what it says about me but when I read Blue Bows (bearing in mind it eminated from an 11 year old girl) I though of ribbons. Not bow and arrows.
I realise I have probably opened myself up to some banter there but I'm in an unusually good mood and thought I'd post it anyway!

You don't mean those Tunnock's Caramel Waifers do you? The ones you get in bag rats. Apparently 4 million are made every week (according to the wrapper) but who buys them apart from the MOD for filling bag rats?
"Anyone see Junior Mastermind last night when 11 year old....."
I'm sure you had an excellent excuse for looking at 11 year olds on TV...?

Rant on!
What an arse comment and a poor attempt at humour. Just what are you suggesting?
Perhaps he or she was watching it with their own children. It's called family entertainment. Are you telling me that you don't watch any tv programmes (assuming you have something as modern as a tv) or listen to your "wireless" if it involves children under the age of 16?
Off thread a bit but as you seem to be ever increasingly bitter about the RAF perhaps it's time you stopped posting on a forum "that is for the professionals who fly the non-civilian hardware, and the backroom boys and girls without whom nothing would leave the ground. Army, Navy and Airforces of the World, all equally welcome here".
Doesn't mention anything about this being a forum for bitter and twisted passed over has beens who keep harking back to the good old days.
Rant off - obviously expecting incoming for daring to make negative comment of Lord BEagle of PPRuNe!

DW I have a generic hard disk based recording system that stops recording if youngsters appear on tv....

Beags,
Either Titan is a Canadian (couldn't be bothered to check his profile) or crew room banter is taking a turn for the PC worse.
Titan,
It works like this: You have ten seconds to come up with something witty, and or cutting. Failing this you have to go for Rev Banter, usually "F
k you' or '...and yer mother'.
Simple really. Here endeth the lesson entitled 'Not crying before the end of the working day.'
