Our politicians promised the SPCA -- no paws on the ground.

Right, lets get these puppies away!

Runner up is Nutloose with I ordered a pair of Hush Puppies from Amazon for wearing on R and R and they sent these as alternatives, stating they were out of stock.

...But the worthy winner who gets the trophy...and custody of the dogs is:

Fly-by-Wife with "Sarge, I've caught the b*stard bog roll thieves!"

Well done and take it away !

I missed that one, well done FBW!

Thanks 622, I'm not sure if I'm in the doghouse or not!

For the weekend:

"Snort, Snort!!"

Someone needs to give the design team a ruler….

Round like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain, or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that's turning running rings around the moon
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find in the Warships of your mind...

Its about time that the Navy got a round in.

After Nelson had crossed the "T", the Navy decided to dot the i as well.

Firstly Hoskins....well done, indeed you have invented a working coal powered submarine ...

....However, the 450 foot conning tower is going to be an issue!

Well, the design spec did say 'an all round fleet defense vessel'...

Well, if nothing else it confused the painter...

...he spent 3 hours trying to work out where to paint the name on the stern!

Tubby the TU-boat...

Boaty McBoatface? Are you serious...

Put one across her bows, Hoskins.

The USS Carousel heads back to port after a troubled shake-down session - the artillery officer couldn't see what he was shooting at (big lollipop in the way) and they blew three of the flagpoles off the quarterdeck as the guns are set too low. And when the captain asked for a Broadside, the crew was confused, as it didn't have a side.

Just when I thought I had port and starboard worked out.

These modern wedding cake designs are just getting ridiculous, there is no room left for the bride and groom

Are we heading in the right direction?

How the RN got around the problem - HMS The Problem.
