Pontius - total respect! Not many Navs could pull out a K2 from a Kiev in that murk. You'd do well in the current Stasi recce test, the example above would be one of the easier ones! Anyway, just for you, one from the archives - bonus marks for the oiler and the Captains name.

You can put your hand down, Mr Muttit.

I hesitate to ask what the bloke in the Bear is engaged in. Whatever it is, it seems to involve him grimacing in pain and being pressed firmly against the plexiglass. How bizarre.
