It's getting like Noah's Ark in here :)

Another ED, with a pleasing miscut. Pleasing if you like that kind of thing. Which I do.

A bit of a brighter Bonomo Turkish Taffy Give-Away area at the bottom there too.

Still just a big 'C' on the telly though I see. No, not 'IC', I see. But definitely just 'C' on the telly. I wonder when the A-Team's on? Eh? No, not 'A', eh. You got that? Oh, right. No, not 'O', oh. Are you mad? No, you, not 'U'.

Ee bah gum....

Stranded on the North Pole….and then THEY appeared!

“Hey, Dave”

“What?”

“I thought we said we weren’t doing the winged hats anymore?”

“What?”

“We said horns only, remember?”

“What are you talking about!”

“The winged hats Dave. We said they looked silly”

“Aint taking it”

“You are about to hear…THE VOICE OF VENUS!”

“OH NO!”

“Hello…Earthlings! (Now, let me see if I can remember my Earth training. Oh yes. Here we go) Hello Earthlings! Can you.. show me, the way… to the ‘crapper’? Is that right – ‘crapper’? I want…to evacuate...my bowels”

“Oh for f:censored: sake! Look what that thing’s done to the ship! How the f:censored: am I going to get home now!”

“We, Dave, ‘we’. How are we going to get back”

“Oh, f:censored: off Clive. You’re lucky to be here at all, Mister ‘I won a ticket to Taurus II’ in a cereal competition. That’s the worst packet of Weetabix you ever bought isn’t it!”

“Calm down–“

“Calm down. CALM DOWN! I’d like to see you calm down when a fifty foot sock puppet eats your f:censored: rocket mate!”

“I don’t understand it Mrs Lowe…but your husband is choking to death!

“Oh no! Could it be anything to do with that voodoo doll of him over there with a noose around it’s neck?”

“Don’t be silly Mrs Lo– oh. Hang on. Yes, here we go. There’s a chicken bone lodged in his throat”

“Oh. Thank God!”

Good work! And with your help we all know that Kirby was moonlighting all those years!

Yes Pete. He was moonlighting as a bloke who dreamt of massive fire breathing snot dragons.

What are the coupons worth in Pence though?

Good question Ryan. If I look at the exchange rate of the time, factor in real time inflation and make all reasonable provisions for accuracy it comes to just shy of f:censored: all.

well, did you ever see his work on "Spirit World"? I still have that.  It's an easy transition to snot, or from it for that matter.  Lab coats might help.

Botox too. 

Further: I can't understand it , your husband is choking to death!

 

"Oh No!"

 

Really, see how's he's not breathing right? Hold this mirror under his nose. !

I can see up his nose now!

"Good, is there a spautula in there?"

"No just a bunch of pins. ".

"Oh no!", must be the single most underwhelming response to a first contact situation I've ever seen. I wouldn't be surprised if the Venusian twirled his fancy cape in disgust and headed off to Mars or Jupiter. You know some place where other intelligent beings would appreciate his rendition of Fly Me to the Moon.

And I wouldn't be surprised if the Doctor didn't mutter after the wife's "Oh no!", "What! Is that skinny, fishbowl wearing dandy back on the planet?"

I think the crowd's collective "Oh no!" was actually less in response to the impending Venusian oration and more to do with the fact that their google eyed visitor had just sh:censored: himself Harry.

Is that what the announcer meant by "The Voice of Venus" ? Kudos to Charlton for inventing the most alien method of communication ever, it beats Arrival into a cocked hat!

If you mean the film, yes, yes it does. If you mean the Abba album though...

Here's a couple of nice Betsy upgrades that I received from that good man @fett (cheers again fett! :))

We did a swap the other month - a few Charlies for a few IW's. I still owe him an IW or two I think, as I got more than him, and I hope to balance the good deed soon :wishluck:

Anyway, here they are. Much cleaner than my previous two!

They are very happy in their new home, surrounded by 427 of their pence priced friends :)
