I understand that one of many reasons they want to get here is that they speak English, but not French

Pasty Crust
 

Never underestimate the penetration power of an old Pasty delivered at 100mph from 6 feet. These double ended projectiles are 'cured' in old Clotted Cream mines and can be dropped in passive or spin mode.
The double baked ends are as hard as Tungsten (even before curing) and are noted to be able to penetrate high tech armour plating. In spin mode with extra gravy filling they are quite devastating for rib shredding and if consumed by the targets will have the double benefit of making them realise how nice the French cuisine was.

But I thought they were dug out of Cornish Treacle Mines.

I think you may be getting confused with the Jam Buttie Mines, but they are a lot further north, where the Jam Buttie seam is closer to the surface.

Wish you lot would stop giving our secrets away. You really should know better!

I think we need an in-depth analysis of the relative effectiveness enjoyed by the two distinct scone priming techniques; the Devon method or the far superior Cornish process.

Hello Chaps, it's Nigel here (Sharkey to you). All this talk of aircraft doing this job is complete rot. With the fuel burnt in a day over the channel our Sea Harriers could have mounted 25 sorties in the Falklands and made a bloody sight better job than the RAF.

This channel job should be left to the RN.

Why would anyone want to study the unspeakable eating habits of the Devonians, a race so backward that there is a prehistoric era named after them?

As a Devon man, I take grave offence at your remarks, oxenos!!!

May I suggest current buns at dawn?

Current buns, as opposed to stale buns, as eaten in Devon? Or did you mean currant buns?

Don't know if you're aware, but the RN don't have Sea Harriers any more, in fact do they have any FW aircraft at all (apart from half shares in F35s)?

oxenos, You are right! Let's settle for stale currant buns. At 20 paces?

What is the radar cross-section of a rubber dinghy full of migrants? :E

A tongue in cheek question, asked only because I bet there’s someone in AIR that’s suggested it in a bid to keep Sentinel’s life support turned on

I think Lord West has come out and said pretty much that!

What we need is a chain of masts mounted speakers pointing out to sea and broadcasting Des O'Conner songs 24/7, that will make any sane person turn around and head back to France.


As for the current bun theory, are they AC or DC?

I shall cheat, and hurl Hevva buns.

The Devonian ones would be B.C. About 400 million B.C.

So it that a hermaphrodite bun?

If we're playing Des O'Connor the immigrants will be caught in the crossfire as the Frogs retaliate with Charles Aznavour

That would be a heshe bun,, Shirley?

A simple, low tech solution to the people arriving in inflatables situation would be to deploy doctor's receptionists along our Channel coast . Nobody, but nobody, would get past them - if reports from a local surgery are anything to go by. Not even the Soviet 3rd Shock Army would have dared to take one particular receptionist on.
