Biggles Takes on the Rebranders

[gizmocat]

Outstanding Flash, how would you like your kipper smoked ?

[Maple 01]

Highland Park in future please!

AT's more an Iron Bru and meths type I hear.....

[DummyRun]

Nice one Flash

Pongo chum of mine sent it to me this morning and we had a bijou wager over how long it would take to find its way onto this hallowed forum, you rightly deserve all the praise heaped on you for your witty wordsmanship and quite caught me out with your "nom de plume"

Load moving.........

Flash,
FANTASTIC !!!!!

Do you want me to show it to CINC AIR COMMAND when he comes to this station in the next few weeks?

Toorist - I'm quite partial to HP myself, though sadly I'm off it at the mo. It was the only decent malt stocked by my favourite Indian restaurant, now closed. The taste brings back a Pavlovian hankering for the finest Shahi Rogan Josh this side of Corbridge (The Valley and Curry Train from the Toon - highly recommended).

Maple - I hope your Tac Int was better when you were in! Now it appears to be E5.

[Wipeout]

Marvellous stuff!

[Maple 01]

You're right AT, my 'inspired guesswork' er, I mean well thought-out analysis is as accurate as ever.

You're cover's blown, you are Rab C

The world's going to the dogs since I was binned.

Dunno how they got into the Int Vault 'cos I've still got the keys!

Too late to start a freelance airforce?

Maple,
WTF is "Iron Brew"

Surely you really meant "Irn Bru". Please get it right, us Irn Bru drinkers insist. Made in Scotland from Girders (apparently it really does contain a small percentage of Ferrous Oxide) By the way I swear by it, but I DO NOT mix it with Scotch.

BTW Lord F, love the thread, surely one of the future episodes should be......Biggles goes to HQ Air Cmd...only to find there is no room for him.

I said Iron Bru, I was one letter out, not two, blimey, that's a 85% accuracy rating - AT being a chap of refinement hasn't been back to complain about the accusation of mixing it with meths I notice, seems to be the only way to kill the taste IME

Confession noted, Maple. Of course, the only correct answer to the question "How does a true Scotsman drink his whisky?" is "However, the **** he wants to drink it!" If you fancy it with Irn Bru, then good luck to you. Personally, I prefer my Irn Bru about 6-8 hours after my whisky: It's the second best hangover cure (after more whisky).

So topical it's really quite scary, huzzah and harrah to you Mr Flashheart...

[Zoom]

It looks really good so I have downloaded it to my PDA to read on a flight to Belfast tomorrow. Have you done any more of these elsewhere on this forum?

[Lord_Flashheart]

Glad you folks like it - may have to up the frequency of this stuff if there's enough demand - there's always enough material....

And would you permit me to repeat the story in another Group, another place, another time-zone?

Be my guest!


Training Risky

Did you write the previous instalment: 'Biggles defies the Beancounters', set in England 1941?

Guilty as charged your honour...

Which is probably why it's so popular in the home of Vodka...

once more ROTFLMAO,

Plans & Policy

In the beginning the AF Commanders Conference discussed a Plan.

And with the Plan there were Assumptions.

The CAS thought the Plan was without substance; and the Assumptions were without form. It would create problems if it ever became policy. But he asked the case to be taken up on file.

The staff in the concerned directorate spoke amongst themselves. They came to the honest conclusion that the Plan was “a pot of **** and it stank”.

But they had to be tactful, so the JD belled the cat in his concluding remarks on file, "It is a bucket of dung and it smells."

And the Director agreed, but toned down the language, saying to the ACAS, "It is a container of organic waste, and it has very strong odour.”

So the ACAS tried to convince the VCAS and said, "It is a vessel of fertiliser and none may abide its strength."

And the VCAS wrote on file, “It contains that which aids growth, and it is very strong."

The CAS figured that his staff were for the Plan and put it up to the Minister, noting, "It promotes growth, and it is very powerful."

The Minister also agreed.

And the so the Minister announced in Parliament, "This new plan will actively promote the growth and vigour of the Air Force with very powerful effects."

And thus the Plan became Policy.

And this is how **** happens.
