Ah well you see the Hun used to come at us from out of the sunshine. We used to call them The Hun in the Sun ..... witty eh?
Anyway there I was stooging along the salient just to the east of the Somme River when Rattatatatatatat. I was being shot at. Couldn't see a damned thing for a minute but then I spotted the begger. Just a little black dot in the sun. "Hello" I thought "This could be curtains for Snoopy" but Algy, my wing man, had seen him too and quick as a flash he has his old Sopwith turned and between me and the enemy. Damned fine man that Algy, willing to lay his life on the line for his friend.
Well the battle raged on. As I watched old Algy plunging toward terra firma, and believe you me it is pretty damned firma when you hit it nose first, I resolved that this would be a battle to the end. It was him or me and I was damned sure it was going to have to be him.
You know you really shouldn't fall asleep like that in the pub, people will think you've had a drop too much.
Errrr Barman, could you ask the lads to keep it down a bit, young lady seems to have dropped off, must have had a busy day shopping and stuff.
