I wonder if that's what the zoo was named after, Whip snake?

"No, the zoo's called Whipsnade Bom"

Oh.

I think we’ll get there, he’s 7 years ahead of when I started eating curry, I made up for lost time though.

I think Keema Phaal must be about as extreme currying as it gets not even seeing any discernible meat type while napalming your guts.

I'm afraid the trebuchet's in the hangar at the mo, it's holding part of the roof up.

Anyhow, the old Lancs weren't really equipped for it until someone set about them with a gas axe, maybe we could...

Look, never mind. There's a couple of those Stentor rocket motor things kicking about somewhere, they should get the bugger moving across the lake lickety split.

I'll see what sticks we've got for the arc welder.
A couple of Stentors strapped onto the Verger's bike sounds just the ticket, old chap! thumbup
Let's set about it without delay.
Do you think we should ask him to tuck his cassock in, and put his hat on backwards?
And what about a chinstrap?

"It's near Dunstable, you know"

"What is Bom?"

"Whipsnade zoo"

"Oh yer, I know it is"

"I wonder if that's where Constable Dunstable got his name from?"

"Who?"

"Doesn't matter now. I'd best have one of my tablets"

Capital idea. We can launch him across the lake on a sort of "forward reconnaissance" sortie, see what the HO's are up to. Save buggering about with the Grand Slam unnecessarily.

Yes, make sure everything's tucked in properly, hat on backwards, half a dozen or so cable ties, good to go.

In 1982 we just used Scintilla saws, Cherry cutters ( now illegal ) and angle grinders to clear out all of the ECM pod bay structure to make room for the HDU sled when we converted half a dozen of the Galloping Flat Irons to tankers.

That was exciting stuff.

Time for another beer... beer

Black Buck! thumbup

No, we were not involved in that little jolly.
JWe just had to supplement the tanker fleet whilst they were a bit busy.

But we did fit the RAF's biggest fighter with Sidewinders and Harpoons. smile


We chalked on a nice message to Galtieri...

Good stuff. If in doubt, give the bugger a proper poke.
