Apologies for being heavy footed on the rudder, but I was still getting used to her.

Turbo heard they can't control it because it keeps on dropping every time is sees a crop. Turbo had a sheep dog like that. Every time it saw a fox, it shot after the fox and let the sheep out .Turbo decided to shoot it, because you can't have that at a farm. Just as he was about to pull the trigger a fox ran past.

......Contract with a Hollywood Stunt Agency, and was called to Hollywood. We neglected to tell NES readers what Aircraft CHUCK flew; it was a MK VIIIa-3 series. There were only three left in Australia (oops, make that two; one went down last night). They had a highlift wing and would lift off within a couple of metres. The Agency phoned with a multi-million dollar 5 deal. He was to play a CIA operative during the Vietnam War fkying in to Cambodia, shooting up a Commando Training camp and bring back 3 cases of beer and stuff. Problem was Drifters had been banned from Freight aircraft after 375 claims for damage; the only way he could get it over was deck cargo on a ship. The second day a slight headwind blew up................................

The new Mk 12 wing has been a breakthru and has a 40:1 glide ratio, so it stretched the tiedowns and was spotted by a US Nuclear Sub, which declared it to be a drone of unknown parentage.

 

The Skipper (cappyref) of the Sub reported that ......

The drone was a POS, and he was not reporting its position.   As we know, AUF members are sensitive about their equipment and all 10000 rose up and called the skipper an XXXXXXXX.

The skipper upped the anti referring to the Drifter as a bucket of bolts, ugly and bet Bunnings had to restock after an AUF builder bought ll the parts.

.... not many people know that US nuclear subs are captained on a hereditary basis, so the oldest son of the oldest son of the original skipper was the one now in charge.

 

So dear readers, we had the 2 times nippers of the rag and tubers still snakey about the actions of a long dead Submarine Captain, when one of the Rag & Tubers (who had glided in from Anchorage [as the wing profile had been further improved over the years and was now better that of an Eta with a 75:1 glide ratio]) said enough is enough.

 

As a result, a Drifter won the World Gliding Competition and the dispute with the Sub Captain was defused via a couple of cases of Jack Daniels.

 

This all meant, and not many NESers are aware of this fact, that the one .....

...PIA who used to criticise every post about Drifters, set the alarm every morning to watch the posters, was beaten. Drifters were the Man!

Turbo commissioned a tiny model of a Drifter and sent it to him, and he didn't go down to the pub for a week.

Not all was going well though, the Drifters were picking up so much lift that they flew like dragonflies; one minute you were halfway to the destination and the next, back at the start.

After a lengthy investigation he was sentenced to whinging about the NES and victimising some forum members.

 

But given the support for the NES by all of the Moderatti, and after receiving letters in numerous languages from NES fans, donors and Patreon members (Turds and I are sick of all the coffees that our supporters are buying for us), the NES was elevated, by Adam Min himself/herself (NTTIAWWT) no less, up the Wreck Frying Totum Pole so that it could be .....

.... a world benchmark price, which meant that only members of the Rockefeller & Turbine families, plus Wazza Buffett, Elon and owners of oilfields, could compete to buy the artworks.

 

One of the oilfield owners was particularly keen as he owned all of the BC oilfields, which were valued based on current BC prices and paid for, in BC, by BC, using BC.

 

As all NESers would be aware, the oilfields located in British Colombia, have always been valued based on the price of Brent Crude and paid for in BitCoin, yet not many people know that Brent Crude was originally named after a wildcat well expert (in fact he was and is an expert on just about anything) known as Crude Brent, but he objected to that name and when incited often went out to his car to get his pistol, so everyone found it easier to reverse the name instead of banning him from any further oil trading.

 

Crude Brent (nobody on the trading floor ever knew his last name, but some suggest that it also starts with a C (perhaps because he might be one of them), and that meant that .....

....the best way out was to build a pipeline with taps. That way you could get oil and not have to deal with the ego set or require an enigma machine. The enigma machine was a sore point with Turbo because his cousin's grandfather actually invented the machine attributed to Bletchley Park. Anthony Turbine was a bit of a recluse and enjoyed  welding up things with plenty of wheels and running 240 volt power through them to see what would happen. He was trying to invent an electric car. One machine had 40 wheels, aand when you turned the power on some would go around. After a while he noticed that others would go around three times then stop.

..... Mary hd a little lamb .....

Dear NES Audience. Turbo is a long-term best mate of mine, but I also know his foibles, and the above text therefore rings alarm bells.

 

Could "hd" be his twisted and/or perhaps perverted way to mean:

 

"had" in the worst erky perky sense of the word?

 

"held" which is perhaps wholesome but could also be erky perky if this happened before she "had" the poor little lamb.
 

"hired" but surely Mary wouldn't do that to strangers, particularly if in Tasmania.

 

"handled" ... so perhaps even more erky perky connotations by Turbo for grazing animals.
