It is better to give than to receive. But there will always be a few that go both ways.

Because Hoskins had not read the memo that today's theme was "Pirates", he was banished to the rear in the hope that no one would notice.

Backing the phantom fuel drain out of the range calculation may have been a mistake.

Those narrowly missing the basket were, in no particular order.
Buster:
"Did you see those two Buccaneers?"
"I didn't even see their ships!"
Wensleydale:
Link 16 connectivity was found to be better when using ethernet rather than wireless.
Chu Chu:
I never expected to find a serial filler in our ranks.

Treadigraph was winning with :
The first Bucc's connected to the Corsair
The Corsair's connected to the second Bucc
The second Bucc's connected to the Phantom
Now heah de word of Dick Lord...

But the winner with a late prod is Traffic Is Er Was:
Because Hoskins had not read the memo that today's theme was "Pirates", he was banished to the rear in the hope that no one would notice.
.
The CST parcel will be passed as soon as I can arrang a long enough chain.

I PM'ed Traffic I E W on Friday evening Z but he hasn't logged in since. As it is midnight in Queensland (if he is where his profile states), Treadigraph if you want to step in., please do.

Actually, if you think about it, you wouldn't need a circle, you'd just need the one at the back to get to the front!

Doris, remember what I told you! Use the right tool for the job. Now, go and get a shifter.
