We found Brown Windsor soup to be the ideal multi-purpose fluid. In turn it is used to fuel and lubricate the engines, then de-ice essential parts of the airframe and finally refuel the pilot. He then can recycle it back into the fuel tank. A sort of Brownian motion.

The Boffins have thought of everything....there's even a 3D printer which will give you a Hitler moustache should you land behind enemy lines.

A barber completes his demonstration post-lockdown socially-distanced moustache trimming techniques with the time-honoured question: "...and would sir like anything for the weekend?"
