Looks like Hoskins was a bit early on the "swords to ploughshares" there. Judging now, so we can have a new one for the weekend.

Runner up goes to,
NutLoose with, Now that's what I mean, see how we curved nicely off the left side of the runway, now if we were back in the UK we would have curved off the right side, it's different here, just like the direction of water going down the plug hole.

And the winner is
MPN11 with, Chute first and answer questions later.

Over to you MPN. The trophy will be dropped of by the recovery crew on their way back from Wellington.
