Ark Royal

[Thunderace]

Ark Royal sailed into Pompey for the last time this morning . . . didn't realise she used stealth technology

Real shame.

I just hope that with all the cuts we're having, we're not invaded!

Fear not, for every ship that is scrapped another one is built.

Here's the next HMS Ark Royal under construction.

...and there is a matching replacement fleet of aircraft also under construction!

[Simpo Two]

A drone! You get the contract!

Contract is for one in 2012, and another in 2020 when we've saved up a bit.



(Then again, looking at those emissions it won't be popular with the greens. Think we'd better cancel to be on the safe side)

I'd laugh if that wasn't so close to the truth...

Not under EU legislation. Human Rights act 2002-2005, 2007 & 2010 Section 4.24, paragraph 3, sub-section c2, clause 3.1(b) says you can't insult anyone, no matter how greasy they may be. Clause 3.2(b) is worse, as that says you must respect their language too!
