Here's my stab at Tony's most excellent G.B..

How it works.....

Simple really.
First, to catch a pigeon you've got to try and look like one.

Zillis spots the pigeon through his telescope.

D.D. steers towards it, and turns on the black twin speakers either side of him, sending out the mating call of a pigeon.

The pigeon heads for the call......
It sees the aircraft ahead and realises it's mistake!

"You don't fool me that easily." Thinks the bird "I've seen too many of these things in the sky, thank you very much." and tries to fly under it!

Bad move, 'cos my aircraft has the wings underneath!

Splat into the net! It's head goes through, but it's wings and the message bag can't.

Zillis scrambles down from his perch and collects the deceased pigeon - and the all important messages.

Time to return to H.Q. with the bag - Pigeon Pie tonight, chaps!

A superbly simple, brilliant, supreme, first class, top of the pile, faultless answer to the age old question. "Just how do you catch the pigeon?"

Time to collect my MEDAL, MEDAL, me thinks.

Thanks again to Tony for allowing the participants to whizz off into 'Never Never Land' for a short time!

A surefire plan Ron and wonderfully executed! By the time my lumbering beastie gets off the ground, there'll be no b****y pigeon to catch!

Thanks for the great posts chaps. I'm chuffed you approve of my absolutely amazing, utterly foolproof, guaranteed successful, mission accomplished, total pile of nonsense!

I look forward to receiving my fully justified medal in due course..........

Your Servant,

Good lord, how the mind works. If a psychiatrist could get all you 'Stop the Pigeon' people in one place................................But anyway, yes, it looks like it would work, definitely a medal for that.
