"and so in this scene, Napolean's forces come over that hill there, then you take off and harrass them a bit. I know it's not exactly 100% accurate, but it's what the punters want"

"No, no, no sir. See how that church has a steeple? Well that means it'll be the cross with a circle under it. The cross with a square that you were looking at is that other church to the left ... the one with the tower"

"It's the one with the grey pebbledash gable end. They want the walls white with black windows and you can borrow the ladder behind you for the job. I'll let them know you'll be over once you come off duty"

"A remarkable beast is the Harrier" is not a poem by William Blake Sir, it's a Limerick by John Blake. He's over there in the commentary box...

Well you've left it to the last minute Sir, but you can hand in your Capcom entry over at the tower.

In all honesty Sir, if I can point to where you need to go, you probably don't really need that map.

Ok, scores on the doors

Runners Up are

The Mirage III V

Traffic is er was with.
Never had so much had to be explained to so few.

Fly By Wife with "I say, sergeant, that's the most perfectly rolled joint I've ever seen"!

Wensleydale with
Your 5 Star Hotel is just down the road, past the Army tents.

A very close call, with the 2nd place runner up being Dan Gerous with the original Well you've left it to the last minute Sir, but you can hand in your Capcom entry over at the tower.

But the Winner is Wensleydale with You've got 15 Chopping days till Christmas!

We were wrapping up the campsite and one of the men managed to drop the trophy into the sh*t pit, once we fish it out we will get it in the post to you turd class.
